ALSDE Technology Survey - Important

All teachers and administrators are required to complete the ALSDE Technology Survey.  The survey link is the same for both teachers and administrators.  It should take about 10 minutes.  One condition of approving school and district Technology Plans is full participation in this survey.  It is very important that this requirement is met as an approved Technology Plan is a requirement of many grants that the state offers that we apply for.  

Survey Link:

https://eprovesurveys.advanc-ed.org/surveys/#/action/106499/2989/1

After completing the survey, please drop by one of our STEM Labs (Brandon or Benson) and sign off on the list indicating that you have completed this survey.  This is a requirement before you leave next week.

Thank you!

Playground INFO.

Teachers, we need your help. Please do not allow students to play with balls on the playgrounds. There simply is not enough room for students to play with them and be safe. The field is a better choice for this type of activity. Thank you for help in this matter. 

Show our Appreciation

Please show our #PainePride by sending a thank-you card/note to the Sargent McDonald Team for the monthly cakes that they have graciously provided us. We appreciate their thoughtfulness and want them to know how much this has meant to us so far this year. If you would like, please send your note to the office and we'll send them all at once.
