Scroll horizontally along tabs at the bottom to find your name; your sheet will have your advisory attendance data.  The data on the spreadsheet will be wiped early in the week and then repopulated with the new week&#8217;s Wednesday attendance by students submitting the form on their end.  The form will only be available for students to complete from Wednesdays at noon through Thursday morning.  Although we&#8217;d prefer students to share what they worked on in each class through the survey, any level of completing the form will be sufficient for their attendance.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorting tip: wait until you&#8217;re ready to enter your final attendance in Synergy (to allow students to still fill in the form until the last minute), highlight and copy the last name column&#8217;s data on your tab&#8217;s sheet, paste it in a blank spreadsheet, and then sort A-Z.&nbsp;&nbsp;The spreadsheet is intentionally locked to avoid data being&nbsp;inadvertently adjusted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">STUDENT OBSERVATION\/INCIDENT REFERRALS:  Feel free to begin to use our <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLScV_lBHvDwKrH2g_HzU4ArvUZcQD_Fl9MURUPtrpj1D01qqiA\/viewform\">new SST Referral Form<\/a>&nbsp;(which is currently in beta). It can be used for any concerning student observation\/incident including providing an FYI to the SST team, one-time incidents, and\/or on-going student concerns.&nbsp;<strong>Our hope is that staff will use the referral form<\/strong> when a student concern arises&nbsp;as it also serves as a data collection tool to identify students that need more intensive interventions. When entering a referral form, please include only facts about the observation\/incident as these are often shared directly with families.  Staff still have the option of emailing observations\/incidents to: admin team (Petersen, Kennedy, McCulloch), grade level counselor, and case manager (if applicable); a SST member will then enter a referral form on their behalf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">VETERANS DAY:  There is <strong>no school on Wednesday, 11\/11<\/strong> in observation of Veterans Day.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HDMS Highlights:<\/strong> Amazing examples of our Canvas universal expectations!!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1646\" width=\"515\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314-400x300.png 400w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/IMG_0314.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 515px) 100vw, 515px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-1024x625.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1630\" width=\"508\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-1024x625.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-300x183.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-768x469.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-1536x937.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-2048x1250.png 2048w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Thompson-Screen-Shot-492x300.png 492w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Hide-Most-Navtigation-Tabs-376x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1647\" width=\"193\" height=\"545\" \/><figcaption>Hide Most Navigation Tabs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Screen-Shot-2020-11-04-at-2.03.13-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1648\" width=\"525\" height=\"368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Screen-Shot-2020-11-04-at-2.03.13-PM.png 762w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Screen-Shot-2020-11-04-at-2.03.13-PM-300x210.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.bend.k12.or.us\/wendy.mcculloch\/files\/2020\/11\/Screen-Shot-2020-11-04-at-2.03.13-PM-428x300.png 428w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><figcaption>Example of what the students see. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quote to consider: \u201cIt always seems impossible until it\u2019s done.\u201d \u2015Nelson Mandela To Dos: SPED\/ELL STUDENT GRADING: As the end of the quarter approaches and we look at grade books, we&#8217;d like you to be aware that if a student &hellip;
