Nuts and Bolts Items:

-Strategic Plan-Student Survey: We need ALL students to take this district survey THIS week in homeroom class. It should only take 5-10 min. A link will be available Monday morning on the WIS-South home page under "Quick Links" you can direct students to in order to access the survey. The school board is currently looking at what has been accomplished with our strategic plan and needs for the future. They are seeking input from the community, staff and students, so you will likely be getting a staff survey soon too.

-Khebrat immersion details – There will be 4 gentleman observing in our building this semester beginning Tuesday. You may have seen them in our building Fri. afternoon for a tour. Their names are:

  • Baraa Alsubhi- English specialty

  • Al Rayih - Special education specialty

  • Saad Alnashwan - Special education specialty

  • Ahmed Alasmari - Gifted/Arabic speciality

As the teacher-leaders would like exposure to all aspects of our building, Mr. Stockton will be reaching out to many people about observation time this semester. Most weeks they will be here Tues.-Thurs. for about 5 hours each day. Missouri State has provided these suggestions for working with non-native speaking teacher-leaders that you may find helpful. Don't hesitate to reach out to David or I if you have any questions.

-Action plans – Please be sure to share your team’s focus area and plan from last Monday’s meeting with Stacey/Shawnda. We’ll be coming around to team meetings this week if you have any questions. We are excited to talk further with you.
