HAPPY MONDAY MORNING!!!

Whew! What a week last week was. I'm still catching up. From 2:25 - 3:00 I will be in the band room working with the 7/8 band this afternoon. If there are any student issues, please send them to the office and I will deal with them at the 3:00 bell or pass them on to Adam. Thanks!

CAFETERIA PROBLEMS
Recently, there have been some problems in the cafeteria in the morning. This has been compounded by that fact that students seem to be arriving earlier and earlier to school, some as early as 6:30a.m. This is not acceptable. I am looking into several ideas to help battle this, including simply not allowing any (with the exception of show choir, drama, student council, etc. students) in the building before 7:15 and maybe even later. In the meantime, I have been writing up students who are causing problems in the morning, particularly in the cafeteria, and taking away their morning cafeteria privileges as well as not allowing them in the building before 7:35a.m. I will put together a list of students who are not allowed down in the cafeteria and send it to you via an e-mail.

ISS
FYI - Our morning ISS supervisor, Patti Hubbard will be on leave until after the Thanksgiving Break. Also, our afternoon ISS supervisor, Cindy Smith, has decided return to food service and take a job opportunity with Chartwells. She will be staying on as ISS supervisor until the position is filled. At this time, I am unsure if ISS will be staffed all day, everyday until Patti returns and Cindy's replacement is found. Please be aware of this. I may also enlist the help of individual teachers to house ISS students in their rooms if the need arises. Thanks in advance for your flexibility.

QUARTER REWARDS/ALLSTAR REWARDS
I will present Quarter Rewards in the cafeteria Wednesday during the following times:

5th Grade - 8:00-8:15 a.m.
6th Grade 8:30-8:45 a.m.
7th Grade 8:55-9:05 a.m.
8th Grade 10:15-10:30 a.m.

If the above times do not work, please discuss this as a grade level and let me know what would be a better time ASAP

I will also give out ALLSTAR REWARDS this same day. I'm going to try to give them out during lunch recess. ALLSTAR REWARD slips will be in your mailboxes TOMORROW morning. Please hand these out by lunchtime on Wednesday. This will be students' ticket to receiving a reward.
