CMSS MONDAY MESSAGE...

Teachers,

I sent you LOTS of information on Advisory and the expectations I have for Advisory. Please take some time to look over the folders and create Advisory lessons appropriate for your Advisory classes.

If we truly want to see a change in our students behaviors we have to be the change. I will be looking for Advisory lessons with fidelity and consistency.

Themed Days:

Motivational Monday...goal setting, plans for the week, agendas

Taking Care of Business Tuesday...clean out backpacks, organize folders, talk about grades, testing strategies

Wonderful Things Wednesday...Students will have an opportunity to talk about the Wonderful things in their lives

Thankful Thursday...Students write note/affirmations to other students, teachers, staff members and/or share reason they are thankful for them. Participate in a giving back to the community or pay it forward.

Family Friday...bonding, team building time for the Advisory Family.

Have a wonderful Spring Break!

Casey Hanna

Cooler weather seems to have arrived, and cold weather will soon be the norm. Keep a watch for students that are coming to school each day without an appropriate jacket/coat, socks, and/or shoes. Please make sure that you contact Mrs. True, Mrs. Terrell or myself to get proper weather attire.

Please remember to notify the cafeteria manager of any field trips that will be taking kiddos out of lunches so I can make the appropriate changes to our counts.

Also IF sack lunches will be needed the cafeteria manager needs to know approximately how many will need a lunch- including bus drivers and teachers at least 3 weeks before the field trip to order in sack lunch foods.

The morning of the field trip or the day before a field trip a final count and the names of those receiving the lunch will be needed. This is for accounting purposes and allergies.

Thanks so much!

Field Trips have been opened up. There is a limit to the number of busses that can leave for the day, so dates are on a first come first serve basis. Here are a couple of guidelines:

**Field Trips need to be requested as normal. Please make sure the correct date format is used. For example, 01/01/2019. We need accurate counts for students and teachers. Please do not estimate. We need to be notified at least a week in advance of any changes to the number of riders.

**We are only able to provide five drivers per day. Once we have reached our limit for a particular day, field trips will be closed.

**Trips should be scheduled to leave no earlier than 8:30AM. ALL trips should return to the school before 2:00PM. These times will allow for potential traffic delays.

**Incidental fees (i.e. Entrance or admittance fees) for drivers will be be covered by the school or a receipt(s) from the driver to be reimbursed will be sent to the building principal for processing.

**If more buses are requested than are needed and a driver has already been scheduled for the trip, the school will be responsible for the pay of the extra driver.

**Teachers/Sponsors are responsible for the behavior of the students while on the trip. Students and staff need to remain seated while the bus is moving.

**Teachers/Sponsors need to check the bus at the end of the trip to make sure their students have not left personal items, such as backpacks, instruments, cell phones, or trash on the bus.
