SOUTHWEST ELEMENTARY FRIDAY NOTE

Miss Clark has spend a great deal of time putting together a community resource digital binder that can be used when a student or family is in need of extra support. These resources will be continually updated via this Google folder. Please use as needed and a BIG THANK YOU to Miss Clark for putting this together!

I plan to keep this resource at the bottom of each Friday Note and in our Staff Resource Binder.

The link below are the students who have received a Chromebook. Please let me know of any other students who need one.

Chromebooks

• Teacher Work expectations

• Respond to parent/student communications within one school day.

• Participate in all grade/content area meetings.

• Classroom teacher check-in with student expectations

• Weekly check-in with all students (email, Dojo, Seesaw, etc.)

• Make ONE phone call to any students you have not heard back from (Feel free to come to the building and use the school phone)

• Let your building principal know by Friday at 4 p.m. the names of any students you have called and not heard back from.

It's that time of year to begin working on the class list recommendations for the 2020-2021 school year. We will follow a similar process to what we have done the last few years where I ask you to draft up class rosters balancing students academic, behavioral, and any other needs that you will students be successful. Please make sure to be in contact with Tasha and Brigette to make sure their recommendations are taken into account.

**Please note that these rosters are tentative and you are NOT asked to assign a teacher. I will be reviewing proposed rosters and assigning a teacher for each roster.

I would like these draft rosters to be complete by April 17th.
