Week of September 5th

Team - 

What an amazing first week! Kudos to everyone who chipped in to make that possible! 

Please remember that we are focused on consistency in EVERYTHING we do. Lesson plans should be visible, student expectations should be communicated and reinforced the same from one staff member to the next, effective and consistent PLCs will be an emphasis and the achievement gap(s) will be in every conversation throughout the evaluation process.  

As you know, the first ten days see a lot of changes in student schedules. Counselors are now working very hard addressing student change requests at this time. We are also making moves to balance schedules as best possible.  This has unfortunately required changes in teachers' schedules. All teachers who have had their schedules changed so far have been notified. We appreciate your understanding while we make changes that benefit our students. We still have some more changes to make. If it impacts you, we will make sure we communicate with you regarding the change. 
 

Dress code is back to normal on Tuesday. Please be consistent and address these issues at the door when you are welcoming students.  This will eliminate any unnecessary instructional loss of time. Continue to address food and drinks, (water is allowed in a clear bottle), electronics and accessories and sweeps. If you are sweeping in the front foyer at the beginning of the day, please take and distribute the late bus passes from Coach Chambers or Coach Vogel rather than having the students fill out sweep forms. Please remember to motivate all students to arrive to class on time. 

Thank you for everything you do as we make Southwest go from good to great.  Remember to be a part of the team and not the staff member that is negative, resistant to challenges, not solution orientated. We are much better than that and we will show GCS what Southwest is truly capable of. 

The following Monday is Walk the Schedule Night from 6-7:30 starting in the auditorium. Please share this with your distribution lists!

Thank you team!
