Happy Halloween!!
Staff Kudos – We often overlook all the extra things our staff does outside of the school day. I’d like to congratulate and wish the best of luck to Mark and Angie! Mark, good luck to you and your cast this weekend!! Angie, me being a high school recipient of many losses to Manning and IKM combined, I’d LOVE to see you and the girls pull off the win Friday night! Good luck.
SmartBoard Training – I still have some openings Monday morning for staff interested taking some time to figure out how to use the mobile Smart Board. Sara Johnson will cover your room for 30-60 minutes while you work with me on setting up your computer and learning how to use the mobile board. Please see me FRIDAY to set up your time.
PD Nov 5th - We will be having PD from 2:00-4:00 P.M. in the IPS cafeteria. Our agenda will include the following items: composing a talk-a-loud, sharing the data from GATES (2-5), book count/access to print data, and sharing the writing prompts and scoring guide from some of the PWIM training participants.
Teacher Quality Committee next meets on Wednesday, November 5, at 4:00 P.M. This will be held in the Sue Wagaman Board Room at the central office.
PTO will have their second meeting of the school year on Thursday, November 6, at 7:00 P.M. This will be held in the IPS media center.
After School Math – We had 104 students stay for after school math this past week!! Thank you to Roger and Stephanie Ehmke & Tier One Bank for sponsoring the program. Our next after school math date is set for November 11th and Fareway will sponsor. We only have two more dates this semester (Nov 11 & Nov 25).
