PLC Reminder
Just a friendly reminder that Tuesday 1/22 is a PLC morning meeting. This would be a great time to continue your work from our recent SIW or if your team has some continuing work to do with math from last week, please know you have the flexibility to decide how to best use that time for your team. (Since there is no school on Monday that morning meeting time will sneak up on you.)
EBISS Schedule
Linked below is our next all-day EBISS schedule for Friday next week. I did my best to incorporate feedback and make some adjustments. If you notice anything that appears completely off or creates an unreasonable conflict, please let me know.

Culmination Planning
Thanks for your thought and effort around planning the next round of culminations. The checklist idea really resonated with me so I will be sharing an idea that I think will help us all with this soon.
Magnet School Application Process
Please go the link below and sign up for a presentation time for the different sessions. This link should work now.
The following was shared in our Principal’s update, so I am passing it along.
Paying it Forward- I spent some time visiting with Linda and Tom at High Lakes yesterday and they shared a nice story of a family at their school paying it forward. After they sent the letter to their community about F & R lunch related to the government shutdown, Linda received an email from the mother of one of her students. She asked Linda how much $ was owed on lunches at the school and how many students that represented. Linda shared that unpaid lunches totaled over $300 and 39 students were represented. The mother told Linda that she had free lunches as a child and wanted to give back. She said that she would pay the unpaid lunches and would be anonymously donating $10 to each of the 39 students’ lunch accounts. We don’t always hear the positives so I thought I’d pass it on to you.
