I hope each and every one of you enjoyed this well deserved break this past week. Hopefully you all took advantage of this time to relax.
As most of you know, this next stretch with all the breaks, and testing, the time flies by. Please stay on top with the communication with your students' homes. Anything less than Cs, drops from an A to a C, attendance issues, discipline issues, etc. should be worthy of a phone call. Another suggestion, try to make a few positive phone calls each week. If you don't already do this, go ahead and try this. You will be amazed how well this is received and also set you up in a positive way if you ever need to call back for constructive purposes.
The district has informed us that the one card student identification scanning process now has dates assigned. As Southwest High School is one of seven pilot schools for the district as well as the largest pilot school, the current plan is to distribute the cards the week after Thanksgiving. The following week, we plan on training our staff and implement the process on December 6th. More information will follow if dates change along with additional information to keep you in the loop. More information will follow from Mr. Miller.
As we are on the topic of safety and security, we now have the other entrance of the school on the magnetic entry door system. This means both entrances are now locked and you must buzz in to get into the school (unless you have a key or fob). Also - we will soon be implementing a new visitor system. All visitors ill be required to check in to front office using the new Access411 system at all times. We will share more information about this as well once we start using it.
As a reminder, EVAAS data is now in. Administration will have conversations with all staff regarding student growth. Please make sure you take a moment and review your data. If you did not meet growth, or met growth in the negative area, please prepared to share changes you are making to meet the students' needs. If you share curriculum with your colleagues and they have exceeded growth or met growth on the positive end of the spectrum, I highly encourage you to seek out the strategies that your colleagues are implementing. The more we lean on each other, the easier and more successful you will find instructional delivery to be.
Last, please make sure you thank the PTSA for receiving your pie on Tuesday! This is a major task and the PTSA consistently knocks it out of the park.
