September 11, 2020

 


KUDOS!
  • Congrats again to WENDY ZEMAN on retirement!!!  Putting in a solid 34 years of teaching in BASD is simply amazing!  And... she/you really always had been a teacher wanting to grow, improve, gain feedback, and you were always flexible and responsive to student needs!  Truly one AMAZING educator that we are sad to see go but that we are hopeful to see again :)  
  • THANK YOU to Chrystal McVey for truly stepping up and taking on more than normal for the team - true GOOSE!  Thank you!
  • Thank you to Jon Nelson, Scott Staude, Joe VanDommelen, Dawn Salbrieter, Eric Sulik, and Barb Berezowitz for helping take care of Dina Weis's sections while Dina live streams!!!  Karcher sure knows how to support each other!!!  

Information/Reminders
  • The Medal of Awesome is BACK!!!!!  And... looks better than ever!  Please watch this video and then also show this during advisory so all students/staff are in the know!  
  • Monday, September 14 - Extended Advisory week continues!  
  • Monday, September 14 - Annual Board Meeting 
    • 7:00pm in the BHS auditorium 
  • Wednesday, September 16 - Building Level Time 
    • Due to concerns shared with me about the number of students needing to complete their virtual work some brainstorming then needs to take place as a team.  Therefore, lets meet in the BHS auditorium at 10:30.  
    • Please socially distance (at least 3 seats between each other) near your house team.  Electives near each other.  
    • We will then discuss in teams and as a group solutions moving forward.  Think outside the box and focus on solutions, not problems.  Perhaps we need to push back iTime a bit but the time we then use needs to be very productive and meaningful. We also need to think about interventions running during iTime, etc.  Open to the thought - just want to talk as a team as lots of you I am sure have lots of great ideas!  
    • Katie and Sue - This is not a meeting you need to attend!  
  • Wednesday, September 16 - Special Education Department Meeting @ 2:00 in the library.  
  • Wednesday, September 16 - PLC - use this time to continue co-planning.
