Family Shoutouts
Congratulations to Leah, Stephanie and Carin for the amazing Orchestra and Choir Concerts.  The kids are so talented and it was awesome to see them share their passion.  Thanks for all your hard work!

Congratulations to Katie K. for presenting at the National Council for Teachers of English this weekend about digital tools she uses in her classroom to provide her students with feedback on their writing. Session attendees asked thoughtful questions about her practices and walked away with tools they can use with their writers.

SUBSTITUTE ALERT
I've been asked to consider the number of staff taking personal and school business leave on certain calendar dates for the rest of the year.  I wanted to give you all a heads up as well.  I'll try to approve all the days but if you don't get approval on the dates I share, it is because they are already high volume sub days.  The reasons are for the all department meetings, new teacher observation days and Social Justice work days.

Here are the dates I was given that already have high sub needs from district scheduled meetings:
November 30: New Teacher Observations
December 5: PE PD
December 7: K-5 Science Facilitators
January 18: 6-8 SS Vertical Mtg
January 25: 6-8 Science Vertical Mtg
February 1: K-5 Science Facilitators
February 8: 6-8 Math Mtg
February 14: 6-8 ELA Mtg
March 29: 6-8 SS Vertical Mtg
April 5: PE PD
May 1: 6-8 Science Vertical
May 3: K-5 Science Facilitators

I hope you find time to truly relax and refresh your hearts and bodies.  Teaching is a tough job and one where we fail to take care of ourselves.  Enjoy the break and do something just for yourself!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving,
Grace
