Agenda Items

Details
Person(s) responsible
DMC

774 students with zero referrals.

94 students with only 1 referral

118: 2 or more

44: 5-10

4: 11-20

1 with 21 or more

62 suspensions have happened this year. Some students multiple times.

Cline mentioned that new teachers still don’t have access to writing referrals, and some old teachers haven’t been to through the training for online referrals. 

She also mentioned that ISAP isn’t writing any virtually because he doesn’t have access. 

Nobody is entering these paper ones into IC, so the highlighted numbers are definitely skewed.





Clemens
Valley Feedback form
Update from Concepcion. 
Embedded PD going bell to bell. Can we get let out 5 minutes early? Clemens will address this
Hall change issue in front of Chad’s old office. Could we have security presence or hall sweep there or could Towns be a presence there? With Chad being replaced, the replacement will hopefully be the presence. Clemens is also point person.
Lunchtime makeup room for assignments or tests where a teacher would be assigned? According to our contract, we cannot do this. Maybe this should be taken care of case by case. If you have students who need this done, maybe just communicate with them individually.
ISAP students coming to class room during ISAP. Solution could be reiteration of school expectation that students shouldn’t call or come up. Could ISAP have an aid? What’s the protocol for getting work back? Clarify that students should stay in there and no phone calls to teachers. ISAP aid could bring work back. Clemens is point for how to get work back.
Students being sent back to class after kicked out of class. Solution: consistency of kids not coming back to class. Clemens bringing it to admin.
Resolution notices. Teachers are not finding out what is happening to students. Solution: Cline suggested checking the DMC. We then realized that admin are not writing resolutions within a timely manner. Clemens will bring to admin. 28% of resolutions are “not resolved” on DMC - this hinders communication.
Outside food being brought in and students being called down to get food. Solution: students shouldn’t be called down for inappropriate reasons. Clemens will take to admin.

Earbuds/Hallway issues with students before 7:30 

Byrd and Concepcion brought up an idea for teachers to write down the names of students who don’t take headphones out after asked in hallway. Students would have a meeting with Stephenson to replace a fun thing like Viking Time. 



Mortberg brought up an idea to give out hero point passes in the hall to students who DON’T have their headphones in as a positive reward. Cline/Clemens is going to talk to admin about both ideas.  - ADMIN RESPONSE - love the idea but didn’t want to do it because they felt it was more work on teachers. They feel as though it isn’t necessary and it adds more on teacher plates. There was push back from PBIS to do this. Clemens will take it back to admin. Concepcion and McCandless brought up that there’s no consequence for in the morning if a student cusses at you for asking them to leave the hallways. What do we do? Hare and Stephenson decided we might start a protocol where you send an email to Hare to follow up on camera if you have this issue. This needs to be addressed again.


SECOND ADMIN RESPONSE: they did approve it asking that we have a point person for this. MORTBERG.


Clemens, Cline

NO FLY LIST
Towns


Cline brought up some issues with this list
Do we need to do something different? Takeaway online referrals?

Why is a kid on the no fly list? Who is telling them? Can they get off? Are parents being told?

Hero Challenge #2 9/13/18

Hero Store orders are being delivered during Viking Time by the wonderful Ms. Grincius and her business students! 

*NB: I have currently removed snacks from the Hero store, pending our review of the USDA Smart Snacks guidelines.

Keep up the good work! Students are really enjoying the Hero store, and they want points to buy their items! Coming up on October 11, students get to attend an in-school performance of Bang! Bang! You're Dead! by the theater department and courtesy of Mr. Gose. They need 125 points to buy a ticket.

Positive culture is our goal. More frequent feedback in the beginning will go a long way throughout the year.

To earn today's Hero challenge entry, you must be in the top 10 point givers for the day! Let it rain Hero points!

Catch the kids doing good and make sure you verbally acknowledge them and tell them what they are doing well, part of the fundamental 5- student recognition and reinforcement.

TEAMWORK makes the dream work! We're all in this together.
