Mentor Teachers for 23/24 School Year
Please query your teachers to see if they would be interested in being a mentor teacher for the 23/24 school year. We’ve already been contacted by William Jessup University regarding placement.  Please contact Laurie Milton with the names of your interested teachers. Please include the grade level they will teach for 23/24.  In order to ensure equity, student teachers will be assigned based upon the order response from principals. Laurie will maintain a list and communicate with principals as additional requests are received from credential programs.

Report Card Prep
A reminder PLC on 2/22/23 is Report Card Prep time.

Emergency Alert Buttons 

By the end of this week, all of the batteries in the emergency alert buttons will have been replaced by Sonitrol.  This year n we will be asking sites to test their emergency alert button to ensure it is working properly.  More details to come.  If the technician from Sonitrol told you that you need to test it for every drill, please disregard.  This is incorrect information.
