Weekly Update - Friday, January 24, 2020

Happy Friday!

Celebrating & Honoring Others:
On Monday, we took some time to celebrate our successes - personally, team, building, and as a District.  We left feeling grounded in our why and feeling positive about the work we are doing.  Have you continued this?  Are you honoring and celebrating those around you?  Honoring and celebrating yourself?  We have a lot to be thankful for - a lot! 

Winter Data Subouts:
We look forward to looking at evidence of learning and growth and talking about next steps for our students at sub-outs on Tuesday and Wednesday.  The schedule is linked here along with the agenda.

Just as a reminder, intervention certified staff attend these sub-outs as well, so their groups will be cancelled.  However, EAs will continue to meet with groups as normal.  

Please bring with you to the subout:
*Your device
*Any additional evidence of learning you will find helpful in determining next steps for students (reading records, anecdotal notes, phonemic awareness or decoding inventories/information).
*The growth sheet where you recorded student names (from a common planning time in the last week - some of you will do this on Monday).  

Service Awards:
Congratulations to the following staff and their years of service to the District -
Cindy Turley - 1 year
Nura Elmi - 5 years
Denise Carlson - 15 years

EL Position:
As many of you know, Laurie Wolhart is retiring at the end of the school year.  Laurie is an asset to our building - she will be greatly missed!  With her retiring, we have an opening.  If you know of someone who would be interested, please share the below posting with them!
