DAISY DAILY FOR THE WEEK OF JANUARY 9, 2017

Recess fun in the snow.....

January 8, 2017

Daisy Staff,

I hope that everyone survived this snowy weekend.  As we saw, Friday was just a tease for what was ahead for us.

Let's hope we can get our students out again this week to play in the snow.  As you know, we follow the practice of outdoor recess if it's 20 degrees F or above, factoring in wind chill; and students must have proper snow gear to play off the blacktop.  We may have a couple of severely cold days, then it looks like it'll get warmer again.

We have a busy week ahead (as always) with PLC Meetings on Wednesday afterschool;  our Daisy Literacy Night on Thursday, from 5-7 pm; and a PTO Cultural Arts Performance on Friday at 9 am in the gym.  Friday also features Early Dismissal for Professional Development.  All certified staff members will have the opportunity to participate in PD re: English Learners from 1:15-3:15 pm on Friday in the cafe.

Please consult our Staff Calendar for all events and meetings:

***DAISY STAFF CALENDAR***

Please also let me know anything else that you'd like included in this calendar, for the good of all.

A few reminders re: this week:

• Office Staff will watch the outside temperatures each day and make an announcement re: recess so we're all on the same page.
• Please remove your decorated door coverings before Thursday so that the clues for Literacy Night (which will be posted on doors) will be in full view.  Thank you!
• Thanks so much to all who have volunteered to help on Literacy Night.  It should be a fabulous evening!  Kudos to Diane, Michele, Kim, Helen and all who have helped to make this a most memorable evening!

Wishing you a wonderful week!

Ruth
