Your efforts are greatly appreciated!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Title I Supplies\/Materials-<\/strong><\/span> As you know, due to Title I budget constraints, we discontinued our preschool program this year. This decision has left us with a lot of unused inventory and I would love for that to change. Linked you will find a list of all the <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1gp0Y3Lahn4ihZY6GLL2C85wfJe3uteid\/view?usp=sharing\">available inventory<\/a> that is currently housed at Bear Creek. On Thursday of conferences, we are opening up Bear Creek to all Title I principals to do a little shopping. JoAnne will be at Bear Creek from 8-12 to check out any materials you would like to take for your schools. These materials are free to Title I schools with the understanding that if\/when we reopen preschool, usable materials may need to be returned. Call if you have any questions.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Evaluation-<\/strong><\/span> Here is <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1E5tG2JjaPY8-8OMXzKUIrrTv_LyfgTY0\/view?usp=sharing\">Domain 3<\/a> for principal evaluation.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>OBOB-<\/strong><\/span> On Wednesday, Lora met with elementary media managers to discuss OBOB.

Interns would be in classrooms 27 hours\/week for 10 weeks. There is no teaching component, just an extra body in the classroom. In addition, they are ready to begin looking at placements for teacher candidates for next school year.<\/p>\n<p>I have told Erin Feeney, OSU placement coordinator, that she is welcome to contact schools directly to gauge interest and find placements. Your initial contact should not be from candidates as we are going to go through Erin for all placements.
