Tuesday, September 28, 7:30, Building Meeting focusing on Writing Thursday, September 30, 7:30, Building Meeting focusing on IPI data and IPDP We discussed reasons for sending a student down to the office. For obvious illness, send students down right away. For minor issues, teachers should have bandaids in the room and students can drink from a fountain for scratchy throats. I met with Julie after the meeting and we are creating a parent notification for when students are in the nurse’s office and will create a note for teachers if students are to come back to the nurse. We should have something in the next week or two. Thank you for responding to the survey. Soni is typing up the responses and the PBIS team will meet next Friday at 7:30 to review the information. There were some great ideas written on the suggestion section. Please send down the containers at the end of the day on September 30. I will draw one slip from each container on Friday, October 1. That student will be able to come down and get a donut. There were several comments about students running in the hallway after lunch and walkers after school. Teachers are asked to please be in the hallway to meet students as they come back from lunch. We will arrange for increased supervision of the west doors. Teachers are asked to walk their students to the bus. The greater concern is for those students running out the doors. Elaine Merical presented information on the School Bank. It will be one morning a week – Friday. $10.00 is the most a student can deposit. If a withdrawal is more than $5.00, it is in a check. Large deposits and withdrawals require parent permission. Please remind students that if they are not inviting all the students or all of one gender, they cannot pass out invitations at school. Students are not allowed to bring presents, suitcases and sleeping bags meant for a sleepover to school. Parents should transport those items directly to homes.
