Busy Days Ahead!

We have some busy days ahead!

1.  Reading Growth
I appreciate your thoughtful discussions on the recent Day 6 regarding your student growth, and plans to continue or adjust your instruction to best meet your student's needs.  Your discussions were very diagnostic AND solution seeking.  The perfect combination.

Principals have asked me what the secret is for Houlton's reading success.  I attribute it completely to your professional expertise and your collaborative problem solving team approach.  The end of the year is near, but we still have many learning days left.  Thank you for being purposeful in your continued instructional excellence.

2.  Google Training

Nancy Dressel made a 10 min screen-cast for the Let's Get Started that is now available on the HSD Technology Integration Coaching Site.  Staff members are invited to watch the screencast to learn how to forward their email from Outlook to Gmail, and begin using Gmail.  The hope is that most, if not all, teachers will have their email forwarded byThursday, April 14th.  

Following the all district breakfast on Thursday, April 14th, a training session will be held in our building as originally planned, facilitated by the tech team (Kelly, Tim, Patrick and Sue).  Adjustments to the original training have been made in order to accommodate the change in time.

Please let me know how I can support you in the final stretch!
