Additional Step Stools Purchased

We have purchased two extra step stools for building use - one for primary and one for intermediate. They will be stored in the staff restrooms at either end of the building.

Revised Supervision Schedule

I have reviewed the supervision schedule and areas that need additional support.  The following changes will take place when we get back from the break:
  • An additional staff member will be added to breakfast supervision
  • An additional staff member will be added to arrival supervision at the main entrance
  • We will reduce parent pick up to two staff members rather than three as we are not showing a need for three people.  (12/16)

Updated BSD Assessment Schedule

The assessment tab above has been updated.  (12/16)

Emergency Drill

We'll be having a lockdown/shelter-in-place drill next Tuesday (12/16 Note this error correction) at 10:30.


Report Cards

Math Resources

Bryan shared some math sites with me at the beginning of the year.  I have added both links to the Curriculum tab above in the math section.  The links are Inside Mathematics and Lafayette math resources for parents.  (12/8)


Emergency Supplies

CALLING ALL RED EMERGENCY FOLDERS.  Please send your red folders to the office so that they can be updated.

Red emergency backpacks will be distributed to all classrooms.  You should remove all first aid supplies from your classroom emergency bucket and place them in the backpack.  The backpack will then be used during evacuation drills (easier to carry).  The bucket with remaining supplies will stay in the room.  All buckets were inventoried and supplies updated at the end of last year.  A list of what is included in your backpack/bucket will be posted to GoogleDocs.  (12/3)


Site Council

Site Council will meet on Tuesday, 12/2, at 3:45.  If you have any discussion items, please send them to Stephen ASAP.  (12/1)
