Quote to consider<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEducation is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it.\u201c  ~Marian Wright Edelman<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SUMMATIVE EVALUATION MEETINGS:  The first tab on this document<\/a> indicates which staff need to have a summative evaluation meeting this spring.  These staff are group A, probationary, and\/or temporary.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are on this list, please use the tabs at the bottom of that document to sign up for a time slot<\/strong> for your summative evaluation conversation with Nole and Heather.  (If you haven\u2019t had all three of your observations completed yet [as indicated by an asterisk on the first tab] please sign up for a time slot on 5\/24 or after.<\/em>)  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, log into Talent Ed (link near the bottom of this page<\/a>) to complete your self evaluation<\/strong>; please have this self evaluation completed and submitted prior to our summative meeting as we\u2019ll use it as a launching point for our discussion.  While the self evaluation form in Talent Ed includes all domains and standards, our summative discussion will only be focusing on the ones listed on the first tab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you know, we have the presumption that all staff at HDMS are meeting standards; we also know that in order to continue to be reflective and grow, we all have areas we are trying new things and stretching ourselves to be better but have not arrived yet.  Therefore, it is likely that there will be some \u201c2s- area for growth\u201d on everyone\u2019s self reflection.  (This is certainly true for me in my own self evaluation as interim principal!).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As in years past, the admin team will have these summative conversations together with each staff member, this supports our admin team having exposure to wide and varied samples of teaching practice and reflections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAKING CLASSES OUTSIDE: To help our office staff when a student gets picked up, please re-review this document<\/a> from the safety team<\/strong> and carefully follow the guidance within it whenever you’re taking your classes outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CANVAS INFO:  As the end of the year approaches there are a few steps to take in order to have Canvas, Synergy and the start of next year run smoothly<\/strong>.  Please take a moment to read this document<\/a> which outlines Canvas end of year protocols.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that we are “All In” there are tips to make the most of Canvas.  This document<\/a> is a good reference for best practices using Canvas with an All In schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please continue to reach out to your Canvas coach for any questions, suggestions, or help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks, Lisa, Elissa and Martin<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SUB NOTEBOOK UPDATE: Print and add <\/strong>this guidance<\/strong><\/a> from the safety team to your sub notebooks<\/strong>.  Please be aware that this guidance may need to be updated in the future; we will alert staff if\/when the need to print an updated version of this document is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
