Weekly Update - Friday, March 15, 2019

Happy Friday, everyone! 


Transition Day - April 1:
Just a reminder, our first day back from spring break will be a Transition Day.  We have a team working on the plans for this day - this should be emailed out next week.  Please wear jeans and your STEAM gear on your first day back!

Behavior Plans:  
Just a reminder - if you have students who are needing additional support, please put them on a behavior plan.  This includes students who are being sent to the office regularly.  I am seeing an increase in students being sent down to "complete their work".   I understand this is a last resort measure; however, I need to be involved the plan to help support the work time in the office.   If students are regularly not showing appropriate behavior, please complete a behavior plan.  Also, send Justin Lang or I the student's name.  We are keeping track of students on behavior plans - this will help design class lists next year.

Multicultural Pizza Night:
We hosted a Multicultural Pizza & Game Night on Tuesday Night.  We had a great turnout of families to enjoy pizza and play some games.   A huge thank you to our EL team for organizing this great evening!

McKinleyStrong Educator of the Week:
The McKinleyStrong Educator of the Week goes to 4th & 5th Grade EL Teacher, Laurie Wolhart!  Laurie is a positive, flexible, and student-centered educator who goes above and beyond to create high levels of learning in her classrooms.  Laurie has been instrumental in our roll out of co-teaching.  Laurie has worked hard to ensure that co-teaching has been a success in her classrooms.  This is largely due to her focus on co-planning, building relationships, and being focused on all students.  Keep being #mckinleystrong, Mrs. Wolhart! 


Have a great weekend, everyone!  Stay dry!
