Senior Cap & Gown Portraits - RETAKE DATE - Thursday, February 6th
MANDATORY (if you haven't already completed)
As part of our district’s efforts to ensure student safety and well-being, we are requiring all students to participate in this training.
Student Training Requirements:
All middle and high school students are required to receive annual trainings on bullying, suicide, and drug prevention. Our district is utilizing the Vector Solutions Safe Schools Modules to conduct this training. The Safe Schools Student Safety and Wellness Program is an engaging, online, video-based module designed to enhance student safety and well-being.
Action Items:
On Monday, February 3rd, during your 1st block class, please show the following videos to your students:
- Healthy Communication in Relationships (Click for link – Grades 9-12/8 minutes)
- Understanding Your Emotions (Click for link – Grades 9-12/12 minutes)
- After the video, please have students sign a paper copy sign-in sheet (attached – click for link).
- Please complete the top portion of the above sign-in sheet.
- Submit it to Ms. Signater upon completion.
Additionally, please fill out theSafe School Student Training Google Form (click for link) or find the link available in the pacing guide (click for link).
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to Ms. Signater. Thank you all for your cooperation!
ELPT Testing begins on February 10, so we are asking all (school-wide) EL students to please attend school daily and listen for your name to be called or ask your teacher if you are scheduled to take the test that day. Teachers, we appreciate your help with this!
Suggested ways teachers can help:
- The students have a Fry List of Sight Words if you have a chance please ask them to read the list to you. There will be a list every class so they have plenty.
- They are learning to read and follow directions. It was explained to them to use the check off method. So, when they complete one direction then they will check it off. They are to do so with all the directions and double check the check marks before turning it in. We start with put your name and date on the paper and do nothing else every class.
- Use picture cards to get them to write sentences. You can check out a box in the library.
- Writing paragraphs we do (7 sentences at 3 pts. each) the point incentive actually works with them. Make it something they can relate to and model your expectations.
Side note-if they pass the ELPT and are placed out of ESL, then they will receive a seal on their diploma for being bi-lingual, which could really help them in the future!
