Working Hard

I can't tell you how encouraging it was to come back into a new semester and watch how hard all of you are working for the success of our students.

Our kids deserve to have the best educators and receive the best education, and when I hear the great questions you're asking, the hours put in, the small groups, the differentiation, the flexibility, I am reminded again and again how thankful I am to work here!

We will have an all staff meeting on Monday at 3:45pm. Mr Lee will be leading a presentation for us!

UIL

Students will be leaving at 11:30am.  They will all report to the cafeteria at 11am to eat lunch before they leave.

Childhood Photos

I would like to do a competition for students (and staff) in February. If you have a childhood photo of yourself that you could email me by January 25th, I would greatly appreciate it!!

After School Tutoring

Please make sure that every grade level K-5 is doing some sort of after school tutoring.

Please keep documentation of who stays and what days.  I will be collecting this later this month.

In 3rd-5th you should be keeping students on the cusp of Meets or Masters and pushing them higher. Remember our accountability falls on those numbers!

Facebook/IG/Twitter Features

We want to make sure we are recognizing the AMAZING things you're doing to our families of Webb. We try and come by often to capture photos, but if you ever do something, that we don't capture, PLEASE email me a photo and blurb so we can share to Webb Twitter/IG/Facebook.  It's time to brag on YOU and our hard working kids!

In Closing...

Sometimes our students are only limited by one thing....us.  We say they're too young, or not ready, or we don't have time, or we're scared.  We end up being the ones making excuses for kids.

I love this video that Maura Pavlock shared with me of a conversation between a grandson and his terminally ill grandfather.
