Hey Team,
I hope the long weekend was fantastic! I got over to the valley to see my daughter and her amazing little family and had the best time! There is incredible joy in being both a father and a grandfather, and being a grandfather is truly a “grand” thing! We had a beautiful morning on Sunday…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I shared this last year when Integrity was the school wide theme–just thought I’d share it again because I like it so much!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) 8 out of 12 of you have taken the YouthTruth\u00a0Survey\u00a0<\/strong>(closes in at the end of the month)–thanks to these folks! As I mentioned in a recent email, our goal is 100% participation! Here is the link if you haven’t done it yet:ytsurvey.org\/acestaff25<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0PLEASE TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO COMPLETE THE SURVEY, it is very helpful to get the feedback!<\/strong> If you are not able to get to this before next Tuesday\u2019s Staff Meeting I will leave some time at the end of that meeting to give you an opportunity to do it.

2) Staff Meeting Tuesday at 2:30pm. Main topic is the Variety Show. Brian’s room. Add to the agenda here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) SIW this week is Educator Network<\/strong>–it’s a follow up planning day.

4) Our visiting artist Bree Beal <\/strong>was out sick with COVID last week so things are getting pushed back by a week. I’m still sorting out catch up sessions and the final performance date–I’ll update you soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5) How is the scheduling going for midyear Conversations<\/em> on January 31st and February 5th<\/strong>? If you are having a difficult time connecting with particular families please let me know and I’m happy to make the connections.

6) I’ve had to adjust the hallway decoration rotation–here’s the new schedule:
January<\/strong>: Brian
February<\/strong>: Frans
March<\/strong>: Amanda
April<\/strong>: Lauren
May<\/strong>: Lindsey
June<\/strong>: Gina\/Ray

7) Looking ahead, our theme next month is Kindness. Just putting it out there as you start to look towards February and possibly Valentine’s Day–as many of you have done in the past this could be good time to start framing that day as one of Kindness and Friendship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

8) I’ll be gone on Friday, Brad will be here to cover.

Here’s to a great week ahead!
Andy
