Reminders
* For staff development this week, we will be entering CITE 6 data and setting targets. Classroom teachers: please bring scored writing assessments for unit 1. Specials teachers - please bring scored assessments.
* Click here for a draft agenda for the November PLC day. Please bring the following:
• Math journals
• Student examples of open ended and/or parallel tasks
* Teachers in grades 3-5, please start thinking about who needs accommodations for CMAS (They are not calling it PARCC anymore in Colorado). They asked us to be strict on who gets extra time as data shows very few actually use it. Students must be on a formal plan to receive this accommodation. Students can have text-to-speech without being on a formal plan, but they need to utilize this regularly.
Opportunities
• Kristi is putting together our GRE Gifted and Talented Identification Team. If you are interested in looking at data and being a part of this team, let her know. It will involve a couple mornings or afternoons outside of school coming up in November. She offers treats at the meetings for incentive!!
• Douglas County is looking for tutors to support struggling students in all content areas. The compensations is $45 an hour. Please let Libby know if you are interested.
• Students in the EDGE program at Legend High School are looking to do community service hours on November 17th. If you would like a high school volunteer on this day, please let Libby know.
Halloween
As a school we celebrate Halloween
with breakfast parties from 8:30-9:20 AM. Our all school parade will follow. Please remind parent helpers of the timeframe for
our parties. Please also remind all families that students are to change out of
their costumes at the end of the parade and that masks, weapons, and face paint
are not permitted. If you have students who do not wish to participate they can
come to school at 10:00, or they can go to the library.
Happy Birthday
