** 2nd Trimester Progress Report Grades – Due by 4:00 pm Wednesday

Just a reminder that you only have to fill out the comments section of the progress reports (not work habits or citizenship)as well as giving a grade for each student, of course. This is a good time to contact the parents of those students who are significantly under-performing as well as those who have showed solid improvement.

Staff Meeting – Wednesday, 1/16 from 2:00 to 3:30 pm

We have a longer PD meeting this week as we are doing some equity work with Lynda Tredway. Please think of a dilemma that you might briefly present to a group of 5 or 6 teachers. The dilemma can be about a student or group of students who present challenging behavior, are hard to engage, hard to “connect” to etc. To be fully prepared, please right a sentence or two that summarizes it.
