One more week till the end of the quarter...on one hand it is hard to believe it has gone so fast...on the other it is hard to believe that we aren't past Christmas yet. All kidding aside, I am very proud to be the Principal of this school. The mindset of our staff is student centered, and each of us is very willing to do what it takes for the kids. That mindset makes this a fun place to be.
Monday's Professional Development Wrap-Up
Mr. Shappell's message on Monday morning is so true. The work that we are doing in this district is beginning to get noticed, and other schools want to be more like us. I think that is pretty cool and something to be proud of.
SLO/PPG
I have had a chance to meet with almost everyone up to this point about their SLO/PPG. If you have not already, go ahead and copy and paste the SLO/PPG into Teachscape. I will review them in Teachscape, and we will meet briefly before the final submission. Mr. Hausser shared a really good resource showing examples of items that teachers can use as artifacts to upload. You can view this resource HERE.
End of Quarter Grade Timeline
The end of the 1st Quarter is next Friday, October 31st. Grades will be due by the end of the day on Wednesday, November 5. We will send report cards home with students on Friday, November 7. Dr. Hoernke and I will be hosting another Grading for Learning Parent Presentation on Tuesday, November 11th at 6:00pm in the High School IMC.
Student Progress Communication
After getting feedback from parents and teachers, we will norm the way that we report student progress district wide. On each assessment that we enter into Infinite Campus, we should communicate the targeted level of the assessment. With the start of the 2nd Quarter, the expectation is that we record the highest level of opportunity that each assessment measures, in the comments section. We should communicate to students and parents that they can monitor progress by looking at their score in relation to the assessment level.
Each Classroom Minute
I just want to throw a reminder in the blog about the importance of each classroom minute. Each minute that we have to work with out students is the capital we have control over to raise student achievement, and meet our individual and building SLO goals.
District Van Use Guidelines
There have been some updates regarding our district van use procedures. If you use the district vans at any time, please click HERE to review the procedures.
