Alice Vail Middle School
November 6, 2023
Dear Falcon Teachers and Staff,
As we continue our journey through this academic year, we would like to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your unwavering dedication and commitment to our students.
One of the ways in which we've seen your dedication shine is in the warm smiles and greetings that many of you offer our students as they transition between classes during passing periods. Your presence at classroom doors, friendly greetings, and the effort you put into building positive relationships with our students is fantastic. These acts of kindness make a significant difference in our school community, and we sincerely thank you for fostering an environment where our students feel welcomed and supported.
We also want to remind everyone that if you're planning to take your students to a location outside of your classroom for a period, please place a note on your door to inform students and notify the front office. This ensures the smooth functioning of our school day and helps maintain a safe and organized learning environment.
Lastly, a quick reminder that there will be no school on Friday due to Veterans Day. It's an important day to honor and remember the service and sacrifices of our veterans. We encourage you to take this opportunity to reflect on the significance of this day and perhaps even engage your students in discussions about its importance.
Once again, thank you for your dedication and the exceptional work you do day in and day out. Your efforts truly make Alice Vail Middle School a special place for our students and families.
With Falcon Pride,
Joshua Peebles
Principal
Alice Vail Middle School

Please post an artifact of how you used technology to address a strategy from the Learner Variability Navigator into this document. This is called the coach follow up. If you have not clicked through the coach follow up in the VILS Academy lesson on Equity, please do so. If you would like to work with me on this, please email me.
