Badger Exam
The 8th Graders kicked off Badger Exam testing this week. The testing process was pretty smooth, and we look forward to utilizing a couple of minor lessons learned to run an even more efficient testing session for our 7th and 6th graders. We will start 7th grade testing on Tuesday, 4/21. Our testing session will run from 7:35 to about 9:05. 6th graders will start on Tuesday, 4/28.
Tornado Drill
After the Tornado Drill on Thursday afternoon, I'm confident that we are ready if the need arises. All classes were able to get to their locations in a very efficient manner. Thank you for guiding our students.
Student of the Month Breakfast
The next Student of the Month Breakfast will be on Thursday, May 14. It would be helpful to have the names of the students recommended to the office by Friday, May 1. This will be the final breakfast of the year.
Next Staff Meeting
Our next staff meeting will be on Wednesday, 5/6/15 starting at 2:50 in Room 201. We will continue our conversation from the last staff meeting. Click HERE to review the work from the "Behavior Activity". I am planning a "Staff Share" session again. Please let me know if there is a practice, activity or lesson that you know is very effective at getting students to achieve at high levels.
Field Trip Reminder
If you are planning a field trip, and are planning for parent volunteers to chaperone, they need to complete the volunteer/background check process through our district office. Please plan ahead for this, as they need about two weeks notice to get the chaperones on our approved volunteer list. If a chaperone is already on our volunteer list, please confirm that with me.
