Buzz in My Brain
It is my hope that all of you know how much I value your work and all that you do, that each of you feels seen and heard as individuals. It is a horrible and demoralizing feeling when one feels that their work goes unnoticed and unappreciated. I never want anyone who works with me to feel that way. I never want to be the leader who works with a team that feels unappreciated, unheard, silenced or marginalized. If you are feeling this way please let me know so that we can talk. I can offer specific feedback and praise for all that you do! Help me learn and grow to be the best leader that I can be by making sure you know how much your work and professionalism is valued.
Getting Back Some Time
- As our students come back to school I have been thinking about how to find the time to do everything that needs to be accomplished to help them have the most successful learning experience.
- I have been thinking of ways that we can streamline routines and expectations to maximize our learning time both socially/emotionally and academically.
- I came across this gem of an article from NAEYC Calendar Time for Young Children Good Intentions Gone Awry
- It could be a catalyst for helping you to streamline a long standing classroom routine
Attendance
Below please find the official distrcit policy on attendance beginning 4/26.
District Policy on Attendance
Per DESE guidelines, families must select 5-day in-person or remote learning and the hybrid model will no longer be available for grades K-8 after April 26th. However, we recognize that certain situations, such as sickness or other COVID-related reasons, may prohibit a student from attending in-person on occasion. In the event that your child can not attend in person, we ask that you communicate with your child’s school as early as possible with the reason and timeframe for switching to remote learning. Students will still be marked present as long as they meet the attendance requirements for the day, although your child will not be with the same class for remote lessons.
Info from School Leader Call
This is an interesting tidbit regarding snacks in the classroom from our school leader meetings:
Q: Can 1/2 of group eat and the other half with masks on doing activities in the same space?
