! Please read through the CSIP and building goals above. Consider how you are
helping our kids attain these goals.
! BE GREAT!!
! Essential Standards charts should be completed before the unit takes place. These
will be used to guide our Dept PLC work.
! Tuesday at 8:00 am we will have our grade level team meetings. Each team will be
meeting in their designated rooms. We will begin assigning students to Office Hours.

Leaving early is not an option.
! MAP testing continues this week. Steve Stumpff will get you a schedule of testing for
your class.
! This week is Homecoming. I am fully supportive of staff participating in dress up
days. We will continue to focus on learning all week but with a little bit of fun
included in dress-ups.
! Our first Enrichment will be Thursday, Sept 18. It will be a practice ER so no
students will be assigned. All students will choose where to attend. Dan DeVore will
be putting together the google doc for staff to complete. More to come on that from
Dan this week.
! Focus on offering more extension opportunities for Our Kids that are already
proficient in their standards.
