Daisy Daily for the Week of December 31, 2018

"Five Golden Rings" from our Daisy Annual Holiday Sing-a-long

January 1, 2019

Daisy Staff,

I sincerely hope that you enjoyed a wonderful, safe holiday break with family and friends.  This first week back will be a very quick, three-day week, I'm sure.

As always, please consult our Daisy Staff Google Calendar for everything you need to know about upcoming events, etc., at:
A few updates about the week/s ahead:

  • We have a Faculty Meeting on Wed., Jan. 2, from 3:15-4:15 pm in the Library.  Agendas were sent out under separate e-mail.
  • Grade-Level Meetings this week will take place in grade-level classrooms, instead of the office.  Teachers, please use this time for team planning.
  • We will kick off "One School, One Book" on Friday, Jan. 4.  Details will be forthcoming at Wed.'s Faculty Meeting.  A copy of "The Invisible Boy" will be sent home to each family in grades Preschool through Grade 4 (via the oldest child in each family) on Friday.
  • Over the holiday break, we completed a few outstanding Fire Code compliance issues and I have contacted individual teachers re: these updates.  We also conducted additional testing of fire alarm audible/visual alerts.
  • We will welcome three new students to Daisy on our first day back, in preschool, kindergarten and second grade.  We expect another new kindergarten student before the week is over.  Specific data has been shared with teachers working with our new students.
  • Please welcome new paraprofessional, Cristina Lugo, who will join us in Preschool on Jan. 2.
  • Over the holiday break, our custodial staff completed some deeper cleaning in classrooms and common areas, as well as a newly polished front entryway.
Looking forward to welcoming everyone back!

As always, please let me know your concerns.

Warmly,
Ruth
