** Staff Meeting ** – November 18, 3:30, in the Elem. Library. Topics include a presentation by Shannon Miller on books/technology and an overview of where we are with CAB science. Please bring your laptop in order to take a brief PBS survey at the close of the meeting. ** School Visit ** - Mr. Carver and I will be visiting the United District on Monday, November 16. I anticipate that we will be back by noon. I am again asking staff members to not speak to students who are sitting in the office for disciplinary reasons unless you have a connection to that student – giving them assignments or checking assignments.

I’ve talked with several people who are out on the playground and I understand that it is a large area to cover. In regard to the field, there are spots on the blacktop where you can observe both the blacktop and field. My only request is that if students are out on the field, the supervisor should be able to clearly see students. A ream of colored paper should be in each teacher’s box. Thank you to Soni for getting colored paper for each teacher. We did not get feedback on colors, so we put a variety of colors out. You are welcome to trade.
