Winter Assessment begins on Monday. The sub for each grade level will be sent to the BLT member each morning. If you need additional support or have questions, let Leslie or I know.
Please welcome Ashley Roulet and Morgan Phillips to our associate staff! Ashley will start on Monday and Morgan will start the following Monday. We are excited for them to join our Maple Grove Family! Thank you to Cherie Rau, our recess associate. Today is her last day as she is transferring to Waukee elementary to be closer to her son and daughter. Good luck, Cherie - we will miss you!
Thank you to our related arts staff and teachers for making some adjustments next Friday in order to avoid two early out schedules in one week. Friday will be as normal of a related arts schedule as we can make it - adjustments needed to accommodate for our 2:30 pm band and chorus assembly will be communicated by the RA teacher. Remaining early out schedules for the 2011 will be December 14 (PD) and 22 (parties).
Student who need to come to the office during recess for medical reasons will not be able to bring friends anymore but should instead bring books and/or something to draw or write in while in the office. It has become quite a distraction and management issue for the office. If two students from the same grade both have to stay inside for medical reasons, games students bring with them should not make noise - i.e. include bells, whistles or batteries. If you want the child to have a friend with them during the lunch recess, students will need to be with the teacher in the classroom. Thank you for following these guidelines.
Attendance - Every classroom needs to do attendance twice a day. This is a safety procedure.
Holiday Celebration! The office would like to invite every Maple Grove staff member to a celebration lunch for the staff on Thursday, December 22nd! It has been a very successful 2011 and it takes each and every one of you in order to raise this village of 700 little people. :-) We can never say how much we appreciate how hard each of you work and hope it's a good way to kick off your holiday break! More details to come!
