Hi Team!

Happy Two’s Day! With snow on the ground all feels right again in Amy-land! If you don’t feel the same I can’t sympathize, but can sorrowfully offer that this probably won’t last long…so hang in there. It’s hard for me to believe that March comes next week.

For this week-lots on Wednesday!

OSSM Meeting Wednesday at 7:45 in Amy’s Webex room: https://bls.webex.com/meet/amy.tarnow

Elementary team~In case you didn’t hear, There is a DreamBox virtual training this afternoon! 2:30-3:30.  Please register on Performance Matters if you are able to attend. For tomorrow…Let’s have an informal meeting in person at North Star at 9:30. I don’t have an agenda, so if you have items we will start with getting our list together. I believe Kevin will be out for the start of the morning so if there are things specifically for him we will table them.

Secondary team: Meeting at 10:30. Bring your agenda items! I’m looking forward to catching up with you.

All North Star Based Staff: Let’s do a rice bowl lunch at 12! It’s been a while since we’ve all been together. Please bring a bowl and spoon. If you are able to contribute something for the meal please add it to the list linked here.

Also for North Star Based Staff: After lunch, we are all going to participate in an ODE event to review the new proposed standards for Remote Learning Programs. I’ve been a part of this work since fall and am looking forward to bringing you in to it. We will group up by our Elementary, Secondary and Core teams to participate in the Zoom meeting. Could you please each sign up using the information below? That way everyone can login to participate in the presentation…that said, my hope is that each room can project one computer so that this can be somewhat of a collaborative experience.
