My family and I are headed to Mexico and I am beyond excited!  I hope you have something amazing planned, too.<br><br>Last week was really amazing- Camp Amity, Kinder Community Time, and Grade 1 Dolfin cookies! Who could ask for more.  Thanks for bringing the joy last week! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A few notes for this week<\/strong><br>1) We have to get one more Earth Quake and Fire Drill in before break.  We&#8217;ll do this on Tuesday at 9:20&#8211;EQ then fire drill.  Please remember that EQ drills are Drop, Cover, and Hold.  We&#8217;ll follow the EQ drill with a fire drill and should be done by recess.<br><br>2) Staff meeting on Tuesday at 2:45.  Ray&#8217;s room.<br><br>3) SIW time is all yours this week.<br><br>4) Community Time on Friday hosted by Grade 2 at 1:30pm.  Let&#8217;s plan to spend the rest of the afternoon outside after CT (weather permitting).<br><br>5) With the snow falling (finally!!!) it&#8217;s a good time to talk with your kiddos about snow play outside.  The bottom line is this&#8211;no throwing snow at others.  Please emphasize this with your class before they go outside for fist recess on Monday.<br><br>Also, in your communications with parents please encourage them to send their child to school with snow gear to help keep them dry and warm when we are outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6) Formal evaluations for some of you (Lauren, Sadie, Brian, Sara, Haley, Brad) begin in January.  Here&#8217;s a link to sign up for a pre-eval meeting with me:<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1N-ttRO8gLl6ips9QESUqGJo51kzDu29KoLWfvxOG0l0\/edit?usp=sharing\">Pre-Eval Meetings<\/a>.  Please sign up now and I&#8217;ll remind you when we get closer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, as I have done for the last few years, in lieu of staff gifts I have made a donation to the Deschutes Children Foundation (<a href=\"https:\/\/deschuteschildrensfoundation.org\">deschuteschildrensfoundation.org<\/a>) on behalf of the Amity Staff.  This is a great local organization that provides many supports for children and families in our community.  <br><br><strong>Upcoming<\/strong><br>December 20-31: BREAK!!!<br>January 3: First day back<br>January 13: EBISS&#8211;I&#8217;ll send info after the break<br><br>Here&#8217;s to a great week ahead!!<br>Andy<br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A very happy Monday to you all&#8211;the last one of 2021!I hope you had a wonderful weekend and that you&#8217;re charged up for a week of fun before the break! 5 more days and you&#8217;re off for a 16 glorious days!
