Hierarchy of Needs

 


Laurie Desautel shared this image a few days ago on her Facebook page.  Just a good reminder of what our student need before they can even get to the learning!    It seems overwhelming, but I see all of you help our students meet these needs everyday.  

This week, we will be welcoming our students back with open arms.  Don't be afraid to let them know how much you missed them!  It is going to be a good week.  Keep thinking healthy thoughts and be grateful masks and social distancing work!

Please let us know how we can serve you this week!


Important Information: 

Subs:   Even though we are back to school, we still have several people that are out due to quarantined/isolation situations.  Please know we are doing our very best to get everything covered - we feel it is very necessary for us to be in the school building with students.    Please be mindful of this when asking for sick days or personal days.  We know there are times that that these days are just necessary but if there is any way to hold off an appointment for a virtual day or one of our days off for Thanksgiving or Christmas that is preferred.  It is going to take all of us working together to keep us in school!    Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns about this!

Make-Up Work:  We are strongly urging you to use the first couple of days back in the building to review, play learning games and allow students some time to catch up or make their work better.  We do want to hold our students accountable as well and make sure they are getting the work done as it is very important to their learning.  We will be doing our best to work off of the document that was shared Friday to pull students and give them support during the school day.  You are welcome to add to this document or assign students to 8th period/LL.  Thank you for helping our students!

Indiana E-Learning Lab:  I wanted to share this free resource with you.  It is called the Indiana E-Learning Lab.  It is a wealth of knowledge from introductory videos for how to utilize an on-line learning tool to links that could help parents and more.  It is free and seems to be user friendly!  Hope it helps! (You should be able to register using your google information.)    LINK

Governor's Executive Orders - Here is a copy of the new Executive Orders given out by the Governor of Indiana.  Just a reminder that students must be sitting at least three feet apart and facing the same direction to remove their masks.  Teachers, we are asking that you please eat in your classrooms when the schedule allows or ensure you are socially distanced.  It is important that we do this so we do not lose many teachers in a quarantine situation.  Athletic Guidelines will be changing as well.
