Reminders

•  Two reminders about our printers:

1) If students need to get their work from the printer in the workroom, please remind them to walk around and not cut through the lounge.

2) If you need multiple copies of something, please only print one copy from the printer and then use the copy machine.  Christy is happy to make copies for you.

•  Please remember to try one or two ideas from staff development and bring 

   artifacts/results to our next staff development on November 20^th.

•  If you have any students who are not on a formalized plan, but receive regular accommodations in the classroom, please see Libby.

• If you have 2 observations please sign up with your evaluator for your pre-observation, observation and post observation.  Your first observation must be completed by winter break.

Opportunities

• We are beginning a new program next week called Watch Dog Dads.  The purpose of this nationally recognized program is to provide positive male role models, to provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security, and to work with small groups of students.  You will see dad's dressed in organe vests this week helping out before and during school. Click here to see the program featured on the Today Show. 

• Digger’s Family Feast is coming up next Friday, November 22^nd.  Several parents come and eat a Thanksgiving feast with their child on this day.  As a result we have a modified lunch schedule for that day.  See times below.
