Family Math Night Wednesday 2/6 - Please ask students to send their slips back.
From Steve Kong:
Good morning,
This year is the District’s fourth year of full implementation and
accountability of our TK-12 Digital Citizenship (DC) curriculum. The district
is working to ensure that all students were educated about appropriate
online behavior and provided with an awareness of and response to
cyberbullying.
In order to comply with the Children’s Internet Protection Act
(CIPA), there is a form to gather completion information. This form is located
on each grade levels’ DC Google Site page (Click HERE) and
needs to be filled out by all teachers who taught the lessons. By filling
out this form, teachers are stating they have taught the necessary DC lessons
to their students. All teachers had a soft deadline to complete the lessons
with their students by November 9th, 2018.
Please take some time and check to make sure the teachers at your
site have completed the 2018-2019 DC Completion form. To do this, you will need
to access the results of the survey by visiting this link: bit.ly/18-19DCACCT
Once the page loads, you can select our school from the upper left
hand corner and view all the teachers who have filled out the 2018-2019 DC
completion form. More than likely you will need to use the arrows on the
bottom right to flip through the pages. You can also download the
information for our school site by clicking the the three dots in the upper
right hand corner and selecting download data as CSV. Since the results contain
teachers names and emails, you will need to be logged into your Chrome browser
with your @rusdlearns.net account to view the results.
To help, there is a video tutorial explaining how to access the
information bit.ly/18-19dc
McKendall, Franczak, Larson, Tavaglione, and McConnell are the only ones to complete this!!!
Current Draft Schedule for Instructional Rounds
SLT - Common Commitments:
As a staff we will commit to Intentional Collaborative Conversations.
“Intentional” means- grouping students together for an intentional purpose: giving certain partners or groups specific types of questions, and/or giving roles/jobs to particular students for a purpose in mind. (Such as a Reader, Writer, Illustrator, Reporter, etc… without giving a lower reader the Reader position, or shy person the reporter position.)
Within the Collaborative Conversations include using the 4Ls as norms, using sentence frames, complete sentences, and RACE as appropriate.
Gallup Survey Results - bit.ly/Gallup18-19
DISTRICT ASSESSMENT and IAB - ELA Feb. 12th
MATH Feb. 20th
TENTATIVE CAASPP TESTING WINDOW : (Draft Schedule at this time)
Grades 3-6 ELA April 29th - May 3rd
Grades 3- 6 Math May 6th - 10th
Grade 5 Science May 13th -17th
Make- Ups for all May 13th - May 24th (If necessary)
It is likely that we will not have library and READ 180 for the month of May due to construction and testing. Please do not schedule any field trips or invite/plan school wide activities from April 29th - May 17th if it will impact those testing. If you know a student is going on Independent Studies during their testing window please let me know ASAP.
Staffing and Construction Update:
*Retirement notifications need to be in by Feb 12th (I believe)
*Grade Level Preference Sheets will be going into your boxes around Feb 12th as well.
*Contract states you need to know your tentative grade level by May 15th, but I am hoping to have that information to you well before that. (I have to consider retirements, hires/transfers, leadership team, GATE, etc.......and moves).
*Constructions currently is slated to start this summer. There are so many moving parts and they meet to discuss and adjust every two weeks that it is hard to move beyond a draft plan. I will let you know to the best of my ability where you are moving, if you are moving, and what construction will be done on each of your work spaces by April. I am trying to give you as much time to prepare for the moves, and construction. But it is always a moving target. I appreciate your patience.
