Considering a field trip this year and need a First Aid class to meet the new 1 certified staff:60 student ratio? You can sign up here (First Aid/CPR Course) and once completed attend an in-person check-off with Oliver Tatom to receive your card. The next in-person check-off is on October 1st.
For those with field trips before Winter Break, if you are registered for a First Aid class (or in the process of completing one) you will meet the new field trip requirement. Beginning January, staff will need to be certified prior to the field trip.
On Monday, the ICCL Team started to create slides that classroom teachers can use for Curriculum Night on September 25th. These are in draft form and we will get them to you soon. The focus of SIW on September 24th will be for teachers to have time to prepare for this event. Here is an informational letter families will receive next week.
From Tech Services: Swank is our district’s new streaming service for feature films, offering a library of 215 titles, with the option to request additional films when needed. It provides a simple, legal way for teachers and administrators to use movies in the classroom and for school events, while replacing personal streaming services and hardwiring devices. Learn more in our Introducing Swank blog post.
Karen Rush will be on site each month for principal mini-observations. I will list these in Week at a Glance.
