There is no staff meeting on Monday. We will be meeting next Monday for staff meeting and department time. We are scheduled for staff development on Wednesday, January 14. This will be a building based staff development.

Hopefully, you had some time to talk on team about revisiting PBS lessons the first week in January. Our plan was to reteach the beginning of school lessons on behavior expectations across the school. On Thursday we are going to follow up with call in/out show during the advisory time to review and reinforce those expectations.

This week our advisory plan is to provide students with a report of their progress, the all subjects assignment report. We will then do a review game on PBS from the studio. We will provide you with information on time and details during the morning announcements.

Condolences to Julie, who's mother passed away this past week. She will be out of the building on Monday and Tuesday.

Boys basketball teams complete their season this week with tournament games at various middle schools in our league.
