Congratulations to our Classified Employee of the Year, Jennifer Borchardt!  She represented our school well at the district event at Patrick Henry High School.

Below are pics from Mrs. Jessee's musical, "Gold Dust or Bust."  She entertained a lot of happy parents and staff.  Nice job!!!

Healthy Kids Survey- New Deadline June 8th
They have given us an extension for parents and staff to fill out the survey so we have sent out the survey once again to maximize parent, student and staff participation.  This survey is important data about the culture and climate of our school.

Incentives

Parent Surveys-If we get 50% of them back I will do a grades K-2/3-5 extra recess for a grand total of 30 minutes.

Monday Morning Memo

5/21-5/25

Our Yokohama Sister Society friends once again have put on a great show at our Multicultural Series.  We hope to continue our partnership in the years to come.

Classified Employee Week-
Although all staff (Classified and Certificated) were celebrated two weeks ago with the help of our PTO, I would like to take a moment to thank our classified friends for all that they do.  As we have said all year, it takes a village to have a great school and support teaching and learning.

Thank you to all classified staff for all that you do!!

Instructional Focus-

Guided Reading/Balanced Literacy Post-training
I will be asking you for when you implement guided reading in your daily schedule. Please make your updates accordingly in your schedule.  As I give feedback on shared reading/interactive read aloud/guided reading/conferring, I will refer to your reflection sheet and your teaching points during your lessons to give feedback as well.  I will be asking for you to show me how you implement this on an everyday basis starting with conferring and guided reading.  Please have your data readily available to discuss when I come into your classrooms.

Monday Morning Memo

Week of 5/7-5/11

 After our PLC recently, I observed the process of the transfer of your data analysis to informing your instruction in a responsive manner.  This picture below is a great example of a shared reading lesson adjusted based on formative data involving theme. I wanted to say thank you to all grade levels for being vulnerable when sharing that day as well as putting your discussion into practice.  

I enjoy seeing the hands-on science activities in classrooms.  I appreciate how you integrate this exciting content area into English Language Arts.

Our violinists did a wonderful job representing our school at the Mission Bay Cluster Concert.  Well done!!!
