The final month of school is upon us. Bring out the Maypole and celebrate! There is still much to do and it is important that we all meet deadlines. Please be sure you are reading emails and turning items in on time. We will have one final faculty meeting on May 14. It is very important that EVERYONE attend as we will be discussing end of year procedures and requirements. Those of you attending the professional development that day will still be required to attend the faculty meeting. One of the things I will be looking at before you check out are your cums to be sure everything is in order. The other is making sure we know where all teacher materials are since we have many new teachers hired for next year.
Just to give you all a head's up about post planning. Next year is our Third Year Review and I want to be sure everything is updated this year with evidence. This is what we will be working on May 29 and 30. My plan was that one day would be for CIPA and one for cums and checkout. Sometimes other plans come up unexpectedly and crush my plans, but we will need to work around them. I was told yesterday that the Diocese will be offering Professional Development on May 29-31. There will be 6 modules offered. I do not have any other details beyond that except that I am going to try to hold them here (or at least some of them). You are welcome to attend any or all of these, however, everyone is still expected to have their cums completed and CIPA input completed. Therefore, it may mean working Friday June 1 or getting everything done prior to May 29. I will be sure to have all details to you by our May 14 meeting of what you need to do.
Book Fair this week. Please show support by attending the Family event and Art show on Thursday. May Crowning and Student Council Inauguration is Wednesday. Jennifer will have the details regarding the Inauguration. Spring Concert practice will be Friday morning. Teachers should plan to be in the FLC by 6 pm on Friday and assist where needed. Instructional assistants are not expected to attend.
I stumbled across this today in my email and wanted to share it. This looks like an excellent place for a field trip. In particular, grades 4-5, and 7. It's pretty far but lower grades would love it too, about an hour by bus. Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota. https://selby.org/programs/school-programs/ Check out the video to get an idea of what is there.
Hang in there... 4 more weeks!
