Information for Faculty    Just a friendly reminder that this week (and next week) is Speaker Showcase Week.  Please get together with your buddy class to schedule a time and place for both classes to sit together to hear each other's chosen Speaker Showcase presentations. Also, we would love to hear your students' presentations.  Please let us know when your classes are getting together to present and we will try to stop by.  Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Please let Laura Brown know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for your support in speaking to students about behaviors across all settings, especially on the bus.  We know they can behave in class and hope we can instill in them the importance of good character no matter where you are. Thank you for your help in distributing the after school program cards.  Please return cards for absent students as they are all reused for the next class.  Feel free to p...

         Information for Faculty    An updated information sheet will be emailed to you on Monday regarding after school programs. The programs start this week Tuesday.  Most of your questions will be answered on that document.

Enjoy your Teacher Institute D...

Enjoy the Game??!! Information for Faculty                                          We have another week with many subs on campus this week.  We know it is sometimes difficult to find preferred subs, but we do ask you to try and prearrange subs as often as possible to ensure better quality.  We had many subs last week who either came late or left early and even a no show. Most that we had concerns with are not on our preferred list, so therefore were just call-ins to TSEAS.  While it would be great to ban all of the less than satisfactory ones, we do have to provide them with due process when there are concerns and we cannot block them from TSEAS without going through the proper channels.  The “do not use” subs were names provided by district as they had gone throug...
