SLED Day 19 - April 13th, 2020




I hope everyone enjoyed their Spring Break at home.  We are back to our SLED Days.  I think it is really important that we really communicate with students and families this week to get back working on SLED work.  It will be easy for them to slip away from doing it since we have been off for the week.  So please send Remind messages and do FB videos to get students geared back up to doing that SLED work again.  Continue doing all the great work you were doing that was above and beyond.  Make sure that if you share that on FB through a grade-level or classroom group - invite me to that group so I can see all that is going on.  

The district has used Title 1 money to purchase balls, board games, art supplies and other items that students can have at home.  We want to get these to some of our students we are worried about and those who may not have many activities at home.  

This week Valerie, Andrea and I are going to deliver a few items to these students.  We would like to check on these students each week with a home visit from some of us.  Here is the spreadsheet.  Please sign up for a couple of you to visit your students during the next few weeks.  This can be homeroom teachers, instructional assistants, special education teachers, special class teachers, etc.  

-Please go with someone -  don't go alone.  If you are not being with anyone outside of your home, it is okay for a spouse to ride with you.  You do what you feel is safe.  
-Stop by the central office and pick up a couple of items to take.  Don't take too much - we want to stretch out the items so we have reasons to go back each week.  Add on the spreadsheet what you take so that we don't duplicate items.  
-Don't go in the house and don't make physical contact.  It is always good to call before you go and let them know you are bringing them something.  We want to feel safe in doing this.  You can wear your masks and gloves if that makes you feel better.  
-If you have questions or need directions - let us know.

Also - now is a great time to get busy on your Google Certification- I know you all are excited!

Please continue to check email daily.  Michelle Cash is sending the info weekly about food deliveries.  

Also - plan for us to do a Google Hangouts meeting on Wednesday afternoon at 3 pm.  I will send an invitation with the code to join.   I have some info I want to share with you then about how we are going to proceed through the rest of the year.  

Thanks for all you are doing to make this work!
