Hi Team, I am sharing this update earlier this week because I will be out of town this Friday so Lorin will have things covered for the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Assembly Change of Plan<\/b><\/p>\n

I am sorry for this change, but we are going to postpone our assembly by a week. \u00a0This will allow us to use the tent for the first assembly rather than travel to Westside. \u00a0It will be a tighter fit but I think we will be able to create a theater-in-the-round experience that will be really fun. \u00a0While we are on the subject of the tent; The tent is due to be occupiable on October 2nd. \u00a0The heaters and the floors will not be done at this time, but I am working on the timeline to get these done hopefully before the Fall Festival. \u00a0Almost there!!<\/span><\/p>\n

SLGGs Update<\/b><\/p>\n

We were given a quick update on SLGGs for the year, so I will do my best to share the changes with you now, but there will be more information later. \u00a0The most significant change is the scoring matrix that is usually in the evaluation system is no longer being used. \u00a0There will be something in the rubric that addresses the SLGGS but it will no longer involve the scoring piece. \u00a0The basic process will be goal setting, ensure goals are rigorous and appropriate, mid year review, and year-end review. \u00a0There are still some questions about the process that are still unanswered, for example, \u201cWhat does the form look like?\u201d but that is all still a work in progress. \u00a0If this information seems a little late then we are in agreement! \u00a0ODE did not share the specifics with the district until August 30th and there is small team attempting to make the process fit our own needs as much as humanly possible rather than be an additional burden. \u00a0Some key take-aways; \u201cWe still are doing SLGGs and the rumors of them going away are unfounded.\u201d \u00a0Second, \u201cWe are doing what we can to make the process more meaningful and congruent to our own processes already in place.\u201d \u00a0Stay tuned for more info later.<\/span><\/p>\n

Staff Room<\/b><\/p>\n

Friendly reminder; Please look at the staff refrigerator for the staff room duty schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n

Erin’s Law Update<\/b><\/p>\n

A few things were shared with us this week that I want to pass along regarding Erin\u2019s law. \u00a0The Kid\u2019s Center is working with the district to help schools accomplish more in the area of child abuse prevention. \u00a0The first step of child education K through 12 is already in place with our Safe TOUCH lessons. \u00a0The second step is annual training for staff; we have ours scheduled in January. \u00a0The third involves more education for parents and this is the part we are working on. \u00a0We will be sending home an education packet for parents and we will be working with the Kids\u2019 Center to provide more opportunities for the Darkness to Light trainings for parents.<\/span><\/p>\n
