Welcome Back!!! What a great start! I am looking forward to all of the great things this year will bring.

This post is mostly reminders and small issues that have come up so far. 

1) Lunch Time Procedure: Thank you so much for your willingness to adapt and work though that thing called-- LUNCH!! The last piece for grades 2 and 3 is that we would love if you could work to keep your hot lunch students in line by class. There are a lot of kids and anything we can do to help the process move along is a win. Day 2 was much better than Day 1. That is a good direction to be moving! 

2) IEP Dates and Meetings: We have several IEP's that have deadlines right away, so we have to get their meetings scheduled. Often times, it comes down to one available day and we schedule the meeting. We apologize you are not involved in picking a good day and time, but if you could please make yourself available for the meeting, that would be awesome. There are not too many, but it is important to meet the legal deadlines. 

3) Monday's PLC: I know you have a lot to talk about and need time to review the essential standards, but if you could make some time to get our articulation cards into the right classes, that would be super helpful. There was a lot of shifting over the summer due to several drops and additions.

4) Staff Voxer??: I sent out some emails last week pretty much knowing you wouldn't see them because you were not looking at your computers. Are you interested in doing a staff Voxer so you can see messages on your phone? Let me know what you think. Or share ideas about how I can get info to you during the day.

5) Mission Statement: Please send you mission statement to me by Friday, 8/16. 

6) House Leader Meeting: We need to have one this week. Maybe Tuesday before or after school? Someone decide and let me know! 

7) AR Workshop: Are you interested? I will work with them to find a Wednesday staff meeting time that works. It will be $50-70 dollars depending on the project you choose. Please let me know if you would like to do this. 

8) iReady: The first testing window is open. This is the best opportunity to get a picture of your students academically. Start getting them on those computers!

9) Wear your Leaders of the PACK shirts tomorrow!!!
