WHS Staff News - Week of 9/11/17


That's how to start a school year! I felt the first few days were very smooth with the new schedule and speaking with many of you, you felt the same way.  Student feedback on the schedule has been very positive as well.

This year the Pledge of Allegiance will take place at 8:01 AM and takes 17 seconds during Block 1. 

The staff Ownit Award will be presented today to a staff member that went above and beyond.  You will find out later today WHO! 

At the grade level meetings I shared and showed the students the signed picture and explained what it represents. I asked them to be my eyes and ears around the building and share with me the outstanding things teachers do for them. 

District Policy Acknowledgment was due Friday 9/8. If you did not review and sign-off yet, get it done today.    

One or two days without students to start the year? What do you think? Please give me your feedback so I can pass it along. (1 or 2 Days Form) It's not my call, but will try to speak up for what the majority thinks is best. 

IEP & 504 Plans Review
Please check your email for the Google Form for you to check-off that you have reviewed the IEP's and 504's for your students. 

Guidance News
I added a section on The Answers for Guidance related documents.  One document I wanted to point out is the Teacher Letter of Reference (Teacher Instructions). This Doc provides you everything you need to know related to submitting your letters of reference for students on Naviance.
