The state will have another budget announcement on May 17. We don&#8217;t anticipate hearing anything before that time. Administrators have a mandatory meeting on May 22 for Dr. Cook to share budget info and possible impacts on schools. We will keep you posted as we learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Some other staffing announcements-<\/span><\/strong> We have offered the office manager position to the interview team&#8217;s top choice. She has accepted the position and is now in the process of being cleared by HR. As soon as we are given the green light, we will be able to announce. Our hopeful start date is Monday, May 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Kelly Sproba<\/strong> has shared with us that she is resigning from Bend La Pine Schools effective the end of this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Deborah Buckman<\/strong> will be taking a one year leave of absence during the 23-24 school year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to both Kelly and Deborah for all of their contributions to the Buckingham community and best wishes for their future ( and temporary) pursuits. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our staffing plan that needs to be reviewed and approved by elementary directors has been updated to reflect these vacancies. As mentioned in previous notes, whether or not we are able to interview and hire to fill these positions depends on whether or not another school has too many staff and there has to be a transfer.  In addition, it is looking like the state&#8217;s budgeting numbers will also play a role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">May 10-<\/span><\/strong> May 10 is National School Nurse Day. Thanks to Sarah for all she does and has done for our school and students! We appreciate it all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Testing-<\/span><\/strong> Testing will begin next week and ends on Friday, June 2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Accommodations and Designated Supports have been entered into the TIDE system. You may want to check <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/13W986JF8f0WgegNN40vW6rzCghLtHR0cGf0LUwffg0g\/edit#gid=0\">this accommodations chart<\/a> so that you are aware of accommodations. If you would like to check in with me to double check designated supports, I&#8217;m happy to do this. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Snacks are in the office. Thanks to Becky for securing all of those for us.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You should have a bright neon &#8216;TESTING DO NO DISTURB&#8221; sign for your door. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cones with signs will be strategically placed in the halls to remind others to be quiet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Students with 504&#8217;s who need a separate testing location will go with me in the conference room.  I will check in with you to find out when you are testing. I will do my best to provide them a spot at the same time you are testing in your class. If I am unable to do so because I have a duty or dealing with an office situation, those students can stay in class and work on an alternative. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Testing window ends Friday, June 2.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Please review and follow the testing environment requirements that you read about in test security training. I also put a hard copy in each of your boxes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lots of questions about multiplication tables. These are only allowable as an accommodation for 4th and 5th graders who have an IEP (or listed as an accommodation in a 504- none here at Buckingham with table as an accommodation in a 504). The table used must be the one in the osas portal (I have a copy). In all likelihood these students will be tested in a separate setting with Kelly W. so there should be no need for multiplication tables in classrooms. If you have an exception to this, please let me know.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Let me know if you have any other questions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">STEM Info-<\/span><\/strong> Next week&#8217;s SIW is a teacher prep.
