Week 6: October 7, 2016

Good afternoon Fabulous Staff, 

October has arrived...

Housekeeping: 
- Grade level ordering will begin as soon as we receive our budget...I can see the light! Grade levels chairs are encouraged to stop past and obtain the ordering forms from Mrs. Roseann for teachers to review. Please update or confirm the items by initialing the top of the order forms and returning them to Mrs. Roseann by October 19th. 

- PGP Conferences begin next week and an email has been sent with K-2 and 3-5 examples. Please come to the meeting with a draft and I will guide and "stretch" you to compose measurable SMART goals and action steps. 

- For our faculty meeting on Tuesday, October 11th, please complete the following survey by 2:00 p.m. on Monday, October 10th. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BW7CBWB

- Please share the following link with parents via your School Messenger page, class newsletter, Class DOJO or a parent email: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GN98Z5R    




Highlights of the Week: 
- When you disaggregate your Reading data, we are requesting that you continue to monitor the progress of our Special Education students, on your class roster. The achievement gap is very real when you view our school data below. There is a 25 point discrepancy in reading between our Special Education and White students. Be sure to include their data when completing your PGP paperwork.
