Good Afternoon MCMS, I hope your day is going well and you are staying as cool as possible!  After this week, we hope that the outside temperature will begin cooling down and we will start transitioning to fall.  Thank you for the adjustments we have made with the team meeting agenda.  Our goal is to streamline our meeting time in an effort to give you as much planning time as possible.  As we make changes, please give me feedback.  If you feel like you are missing information, confused on a topic/procedure, or just like the old format of team meetings, let me know.  Your time and growth as an educator is important to us.

Good Afternoon MCMS, I hope everyone is having a great day!  Thank you for the adjustments you have made this week, especially with yesterdays internet issues.  Thank you for administering iReady today and next week.  This assessment will give us valuable baseline data for our students.  Our goal is to use this data to help drive instruction in all of our classes and to identify the areas of individual growth for each student. Good job on the Fire Drill this morning!  We were all out of the building and accounted for in less than six minutes.  Congratulate your students on following directions and taking the drill seriously.  Drilling like this will help in the event that a emergency situation does occur.
