Paine Elementary Teacher of the Year

Congratulations to Shayna Swann, our Paine Elementary Teacher of the Year.  She will be in the running for TCS Elementary Teacher of the Year.  



Aims Web Math Testing

AimsWeb Math Testing should be completed before Christmas break.  The assessment is online for grades 2-5, so please go ahead and give this assessment this week.  This will allow us the final week before the break for any make-ups.  We will have a testing team here beginning Monday to administer the K & 1 assessments.  We will begin with first grade.  The teams will be set up in the hallway to limit the travel time.  Please make sure students are traveling through the hallways quietly.


Wednesday Collaboration

Please use this time work on lesson plans (be sure to share them electronically).  Third grade literacy teachers will be working on unpacking the portfolio requirements under the Literacy Act.  

Thursday - PAWS Time


Our first Thursday PAWS time was a great success!  We were able to provide individualized help to 15 of our students.  We look forward to working with students again this week.


Thursday Afternoon

Please use the early release time this week to catch up on grades, lesson plans, etc. before Christmas break.


Lost and Found

Please put a reminder in your weekly newsletter for students to check lost and found before Christmas break.  Any leftover items will be donated over the break.
