If you have
not changed your bulletin board since we have returned in January, you will
need to change it by March 4. All bulletin boards need to include:
·
Learning Objective (I
Can statement)
·
Standard
(Common Core, NGSS, etc.)
Bulletin Boards
Welcome Email
You should have received your Trimester 3 class list by now. Please make sure that you contact your new families via email by Tuesday, March 2. Please include your intro/welcome letter and class schedule
(virtual).
Social Distance Circles
We have removed the social distancing circles because they were a hot mess. 😊 We will be putting new ones down during Spring Break. At that time, there will be one row in the center of the hallway to hopefully increase longevity. When installed, we ask that students continue to line up on the blue carpet, not the circles, and only use the circles as a guide.
Classroom Cameras
NHA
informed me that they will begin installing classroom cameras the week of March
8. It will take 3 days to complete the project and majority of the work will be
done after school hours. I will let you know if anything changes.
Synchronous Lessons
Please make sure that you record your synchronous lessons
on Monday for those students who are unable to attend. We want to make sure all
students have access to learning regardless of their home situation.
Shout Outs
Jen H, Ashley H, Stephanie, Deb, Robyn, Jamie, Stacey, and Tameka for being the best direct reports that anyone could ask for. You have completely spoiled me this week. I don’t know what I am going to do when I come next week and don’t have a surprise every day!

15-Minute O3s
It’s that time again where I would like to have
a 15-minute O3 with every staff member the week of March 1-5.
This gives both of us an opportunity to connect.
As often as I am in classrooms seeing the great things that you all are doing,
I don’t get to hear how you are feeling about everything. Please come to the O3
willing to share with me one
thing that you like about Keystone and one thing
that if we changed would improve Keystone.
I am
asking ALL staff members to please use the link: Sign Up Sheet to sign up by Wednesday, February 24.
I will be
sending out calendar invites by Friday, February 26. I look forward to spending
this time with you!
