Weekly Update - January 6, 2021

As we begin the next nine weeks, it is a good time to do some mid-point assessments to see student progress.  I think this is more important than ever that we do these.  

*STAR Assessment - many of you have already done this again - but if you have not - please do in the next week.

*MAP window - will open on Monday.  Our goal is to have everyone tested by Friday, January 15th.  If you do not think you can do that for your grade level - please let me know.  We would like to schedule RTI meetings for the following week and use that data from those assessments. 

I'd like for you to select one student as your Leader of the Month for November/December and add it to the morning announcement slide by Friday afternoon.  Please select your Leader of the Month this time based on their participation/effort/work ethic during our time of virtual instruction.  

It is even more important than ever that students get time outside during recess.  If it is possible at all - I would like for all classes to do this (or gym).  If it is too wet to get in the yard or on the playground - think about talking a walk outside or playing a game on the sidewalks.  Please communicate with parents through remind that it is important that they send a jacket, gloves, and hood/hat with their child to school each day.  If you have a student who doesn't have these items - please let us know.  

I am so glad to be back at school and we have had a wonderful week!  Thank you all for all you do!
