School-Wide Expectations
In following up on our work on school-wide behaviours and community
expectations, we will soon be posting up our overall expectations (Be Safe, Be
Responsible, Be Respectful) throughout the elementary section. We would also
like you to take some time during your morning meetings to review our school-wide expectations with your students. You might consider talking about one
particular area (e.g., cafeteria, hallways) and then talk about another area
during a different meeting so every student clearly understands the
expectations for each area. The matrix is intended for adults so please
consider how you want to share the school-wide expectations for each area with
your students.
Ordering 2019-20
As per Mouli’s email, we will follow the usual procedures for ordering
and your due date for orders to Keryn is next Friday, Nov 9. Remember
that you will not personally order your Bridges resources, but you will add
them to the Bridges Order spreadsheet, and Calley will order for your team. Please read the directions
carefully - the procedure covers ordering both Bridges and other resources -
and let Calley know if you have any questions or concerns. In particular,
if you are having trouble finding something, please just shoot Calley an email
and let her help you sort through the options to find the math resources that
you need.
Staffing Information
From next Wednesday 7 November, Tara
will be taking over the role of homeroom teacher in 3TF (3TG!), and until
Tiffany goes out on maternity leave she will be covering the EAL co-teaching
across the two classes. In addition, Radha will be continuing her EAL
co-teaching in 1KC/1MB as Seema will be extending her leave until closer to the
winter break.
Missoula Children’s Theatre
We have approx 140 G1-5 children sign
up for the Missoula Treasure Island Cast. Please talk to your class
sometime next week before the auditions on Monday 12th to prepare them for
disappointment, and graceful congratulations to friends, should they not be
chosen for a role.
Have a wonderful l o n g weekend!
Warmly,
Keryn, Dave, and Calley
