A huge thanks to all of you for making the Pancake Breakfast such a great success last Friday&#8211;we had lots of very happy parents and kiddos!  It was a great connecting time for all involved!<br><br><strong>A few notes to get you going:<\/strong><br>1) <strong>Harvest Festival is this Saturday<\/strong>, October 15 from 4-7pm.  While you are not required to be there, it&#8217;s always awesome to have teachers here.  If you want to be here but don&#8217;t want to just hang out, there are plenty of volunteer opportunities&#8211;click here: <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/167D0Xms1YKXjaCu_4TZdXC9sKq-9Tbt7C_cKWVujLPk\/edit?usp=sharing\">Harvest Fest Volunteering<\/a>.  Costumes encouraged!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2) Picture Day is Tuesday!  Remind families to get their order forms in.<br><br>3) <strong>Bus evacuation drill on Thursday at 9:45am<\/strong>.  We need to be at the admin building ready to load the busses at 9:45 so please leave plenty early.  We will have to move Choice Time to 9:10 to 9:30 in order to accommodate this.<br><br>4) <strong>DIBELS make up on Monday afternoon between 12:30 and 1:50<\/strong>.  This is tentative but likely.<br><br>5) Reminder to <strong>keep your doors locked<\/strong> even when they are open.<br><br>6) <strong>Invitations sign up change<\/strong>.  Lindsey has agreed to bring her computer to lunch on Mondays and Thursdays to help facilitate a more organized and timely sign up process.  Thank you Lindsey!<br><br>7) <strong>SIW this week is teacher directed<\/strong>.  I want to remind you that &#8220;teacher directed&#8221; can certainly mean prep time, but it can mean many other things as well such as team meetings, meetings to move forward on particular action items, professional development, and more.  It is simply a time directed by all of you to work on the things you feel are important.  While I fully acknowledge that prep time is at a premium, I just also wanted to remind you that the time can be used for a multitude of endeavors.<br><br>8) <strong>Conversations next week<\/strong> on Wednesday and Thursday.  Be sure to get a sign up form out to parents Monday or Tuesday at the latest-I believe most of you are using Google docs.  And please remember to make sure you are offering some evening times for parents who cannot make it until after work.  I will be delivering a class set of Conversations Prep note forms to you on Monday so you can begin prepping for next week!  <br><br><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Upcoming<\/span><\/strong><br><strong>October 11<\/strong>: Picture Day<br><strong>October 12<\/strong>: Vision Screening (Lion\u2019s Club)<br><strong>October 13:<\/strong> Bus evacuation Drill, 9:45am&#8211;all school at Admin Building (10 minutes)<br><strong>October 15<\/strong>: Harvest Festival, 4-7pm<br><strong>October 19\/20<\/strong>:&nbsp;<em>Conversations<\/em>, No School<br><strong>October 26:&nbsp;<\/strong>Earthquake\/Fire Drill, 10:45am<br><strong>November 3:<\/strong> Student Success meetings<br><strong>November 10:<\/strong>&nbsp;Secure Drill, 9:20am<br><strong>November 11<\/strong>: Veteran\u2019s Day, No School<br><strong>November 21-25:<\/strong>&nbsp;Thanksgiving Break, No School<br><strong>November 29:<\/strong>&nbsp;Fire Drill, 9:20am<br><strong>November 30:<\/strong>&nbsp;Picture retakes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s to a great week ahead!<br>Andy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Hearty Happy Monday To You All!I hope you had a great weekend and are really enjoying this amazing Fall weather!
