2nd+Grade


 * Right now it appears that we will loose our entire instructional assistant staff except for Ms Reyes.
 * There is a possibility they we will have another assistant principal next year. Ms Washington is interviewing.
 * We were asked by the district to consider adding 6th grade to our site. I declined to answer and talked to the superintendent afterwards to let him know that we barely had space for our current population. He offered no comment.
 * Promote the use of all of our online instruction. They are being monitored for usage. //__There may be a use it or loose it decision at the end of the year.__// Overall we have fair usage in every program.

What do you think about the effectiveness of our intervention system this year? Instructional Assistants? Intervention Subs?

This year we reclassified 59 students. Most of those that did not meet all criteria did not meet the fluency criteria. What can we do to improve 1st and second grade fluency? How can we improve ELD instruction?

We have not made the kind of progress we need to make in writing. Writing is going to be a big part of Common Core. Should we review the Write from the Beginning program, materials are on site, or initiate a new program?

We need another certificated person on site 24/7. We have discussed options, a long term Sub, TOSA, or Curriculum Specialist. What do you think? I/We will take this response to the SSC.

We have an option of changing our starting time next year. This was proposed to make our bussing system more fiscally efficient. The possible times to begin are, 7:30, 8:10 closest to the current time and 8:50. What are your thoughts and preferences?

What other PD do you think will be helpful for our staff?

Should we set up an August Leadership meeting to make sure all things are in place for the coming year? If so best dates are___.

Please add questions you may have or those asked by you team…
