First Day

Wow - again you amaze me! Thank you very much to everyone who jumped in and worked wherever needed. From greeters, tech fixers, long lunch duties, extra lunch duties, helping others with lines and schedules. Just all around wonderful attitudes. I hope the students and parents feel as great about being here as do the employees. Wonderful job folks. Here are a couple of notes for tomorrow and beyond.

  1. Attendance on Skyward - When you open your attendance windows there are two classes listed (except Stephanie Burke). We told you to use the first one, but it is "greyed out" and not available. Use the second class and it should work. Still need lunch counts.
  2. First grade teachers need to come to lunch after fourth and second so that we don't slow them all down. BUT they need a good way to find their cards. You could have your stack in your room and have them bring them with them to the line if you like. Or try small stickers so that they are looking for a butterfly........
  3. We will have a fire drill on FRIDAY. Make sure you teach them procedures on Thursday. We will do a fire drill or lock down each week for awhile. This helps with the count so we don't have to go out in the dead of winter.

Thank you for a great start!

  1. First grade, Can we put our kids in ABC order for awhile. Then it won't take them as long to find their cards.

  2. Could I borrow a couple of fifth graders to help with my class during the fire drill? I am thinking of having them hold open the doors for my class and bringing up the back of my line.
    Thanks, Kayla
