Report Cards<\/b><\/p>\n

These two weeks will have minimal morning meetings so you can have some additional time with the end of the semester approaching.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please take some time to review the document linked below when working on report cards. \u00a0There is a chance there might be some slight revisions to this document in the future in an effort to clarify, however the basic message will remain the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

PLCs<\/b><\/p>\n

I want to take a moment to revisit the rational and purpose for PLC meetings. \u00a0PLCs are designed differently than a typical team meeting. \u00a0PLCs are designed in the spirit of \u201cwe can always improve\u201d. \u00a0We use these times to further develop our own skill. \u00a0As we mentioned in the beginning of the year our SIW time would be limited so the scheduled PLC times are good times to focus on math instruction. \u00a0We set one of these meetings for each month on a Tuesday, however you and your team have the flexibility to move this time to another morning that works better for the team so long as it does not conflict with another meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n

Opportunity-<\/b> Here is an opportunity and local resource that you might consider becoming involved with: My name is Spring Olson, I own the Central Oregon Seed Exchange and also function as an science and agricultural educator here in Deschutes County. \u00a0We are expanding our <\/span>Seed to Schools program<\/b> this year (we provide a vegetable or flower seed packet to each child per school) from Elk Meadow Elementary School into more schools here locally. If you have any classes that might need seed for growing or educational purposes, let me know\u2026here to help!<\/span><\/p>\n

    That time of year is coming up on us quickly. \u00a0This year the district is rolling out an online application for magnet schools. \u00a0Paper copies will still be available, but the online application should help streamline the process for each of the school offices tremendously.<\/span><\/p>\n
