Principal's Update- Friday, December 11, 2015

Can you believe it's December!?  I had my window open in my car yesterday as I drove home- crazy!

Random Updates:
  • Assemblies & Special Events- Unless it's your prep time, you should be supervising students in the assembly/special event. 
  • Internet Safety- Classroom Teachers, please take care of this and sign the sheet on Lorri's desk by December 23. 
  • Lunch on December 23- Lunch will be provided on December 23.  Plan on bringing something to drink!
  • Leaving building during day- you must sign out in office if you leave the building.   In the event of a lockdown or someone needing you, we need to know if you are in/out of the building.
January Math Facts:
As a school, we will be dedicating 3 weeks in January as "Math Facts Month".  The goal of this is to promote math facts to families and students in a short, three week manner.  Information and calendars will be coming on this in the next week. 

Growth Mindset:
This quote made me smile, thinking of our staff and students.  There's a feel to this building that is remarkable- a growth mindset of honoring the journey, not just the destination. 

Winter Concert:
What an amazing winter concert last night!  Our 3rd-5th graders and choir did an stellar job.  We've got some pretty great musicians in this building.  Thanks to everyone for being flexible with scheduling to make this concert happen.  Also, a huge thank you to Paige Moon and Jessica MacLeod.  It was a first-class event!

Valet Parking for the Week:
The Valet Parking for the Week goes to Sylvia Zavala.  Sylvia is amazing at what she does.  She is great at helping students, but also helps serve as a connection between our school and our families.  Sylvia is dedicated and goes above and beyond to make things happen around here.  We are very lucky to have Sylvia serve our students and families! 


Have a great weekend, everyone!
