School-Wide Theme: Kindness

Hello All,
I hope you enjoyed the long weekend, it seems to have arrived at just the right moment! I got out for a night ski on Friday and it was incredible–the night sky was brilliant and I could see Mars, Venus, and Jupiter. I love being out on the trails at night! After the ski I went to Winterfest to see a Tom Petty tribute band–over the top fun! I hope you did something fun over the weekend, too.

A few notes to get you rolling:
1) New Buddies start this week: K/2, 1/5, 3/4. This round of Buddies goes until Spring Break.

2) SIW this week is a Teacher Work Day-enjoy the time! I’ll leave that day at 2:30pm to get to an admin meeting.

3) Bend Science Station this week: Grade 3 on Tuesday, Grades 1 and 2 on Thursday.

4) Variety Show rehearsals this week on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Let’s have rehearsal on Wednesday at 12 like we did last Wednesday–it worked very nicely.

5) Bread and Jam on Friday

6) Lastly, I’ll be doing some mini observations in the next 2 weeks and meeting up with you individually after school to do the follow up. Business as usual, I just need to document visits. If there is something in particular you’d like for me to observe, please let me know!

Here’s to a great week ahead!
Andy
