Calm Classroom

License for streaming will be in soon. Looking for you all to try to do this quick little routine twice a day for all students and yourself.

Please try to shut the class down and really have this be the focus for the students with no interruption.(Obviously the best we can do) Start of day, after recess or anytime you need a moment to breath. :)

Walkie Talkies: Some of our walkies decided to stop working. We are working on it. We will have one in the office to borrow for those that do not have one and need one for when they go outside the building.

All phones are functioning and a great way to communicate within the building.

All plans should be updated in Vector.

If you work between two schools, we are working on who will be your evaluator.

Please be sure to get all students on ST Math for the proper time each week. It supports what they are learning in the classroom.
