Happy Friday!
We made it through a 5 day rotation - woo hoo! This is always a little stressor for me, making sure that the master schedule works out!
A few random reminders:
- Don't forget.... Vikings or Packers gear on Monday! Let's cheer on the purple this Sunday!
- Staff Power Hour - our first ALL Staff Power Hour is this Monday, September 12 from 2:40-3:20pm in the Learning Studio. We do need you all in attendance - see me with any conflicts. The agenda was shared in the calendar invite.
- Just a reminder, your "welcome back to do list" is due today. Please get those items taken care of ASAP and get me your Promise Statements (this is all staff).
September Newsletter:
Linked is the September Family Newsletter link. Please remember, if you have items to add to this, please get them to Selena. Please note - she works on this newsletter about a month before it comes out!
Paraprofessional Update:
I am THRILLED to report that Grace Thurnau, former paraprofessional, will be returning to McKinley in a temporary role as a paraprofessional. Grace will be starting this Monday.
A huge, huge shoutout to our Special Education Team for making this work so far. Our teachers and paras have worked hard to make the start of this year a great one. If you see them, please offer your appreciation!
Lunch Changes:
Due to space and time issues, we need to alter the lunch schedule for a few grade levels (Kdg, 2nd, and 3rd), starting Monday. The master schedule has been updated with these changes - please check it out!
A huge thank you to our amazing EA team and Food Services for working through some changes and issues that have come up. This team is working hard to make sure lunch is a positive, efficient time!
Hispanic Heritage Month:
Happy National Hispanic Heritage Month! Next Thursday, September 15 begins this month to honor and celebrate the Hispanic culture. Below is a 3 minute video that explains this month - please take the 3 minutes and watch!
Carrying that Banner!
Don't forget to be utilizing Twitter - what a great way to carry that McKinley & ISD 761 "banner" and share the amazing things you are doing every single day!
Have a great weekend!
