7:52 Everyone here, PBS day. We will do agenda check today, not if they have them, but if they are USING them. NOTE: perfect attendance will be on September 23, 2008. Make sure we have our second chance papers for any student who needs them. We filed out our infraction sheet, it was long. Here is a recap: We gave out drachs, we had disproportionality, and MREs make our students excitable. Who’d a thunk it? Schedule issues, etc. Meeting over.

7:55 We discussed a temporary teacher to take Melissa’s place until she heals fully. Team changes will happen, we created a new schedule based on Jamestown scores. Looks like our classes will be leveled!! (finally)
20 minutes in, Robin needs a cigarette. Time is ticking, no time for thumbs. Matt asked if two negative phone calls would equal one positive call. No. bye (8:30)

7:45 Meeting begins, we learn that tilapias are crap eaters. And catfish. No one is getting enough sleep. Team calls for a day to sleep in. We agree on Saturday. We began creating a testing schedule for next week. We created schedules to even out our classes and move students to honor classes. It’s a good feeling. UPDATE we can’t move our discipline problem students because of honors classes, and the different parts of Algebra. Robin has something in her nose. We will meet at 7:40 in Mrs. Y’s room for our next meeting.

8:17 Meeting ended

8:15 PBS meeting today. We are discussing tutoring for students. We addressed
mandatory tutoring; the penalty for not showing is suspension. We distinguished
between 2nd chance, tutoring, Credit Recovery. Tutoring is for English, Math, and
Science. Social Studies must be rocking. We also looked into behavior coaching, no one
suggest any student…yet. We are a little confused about weekly behavior logs, most of
us use the log daily. Mrs. McCorkle brought our student rosters, we need to level our
classes within our team. 504 or special needs? We are just getting our IEPs, so none
yet. Everyone left. Bye.

August 19, 2008

7:50 We discussed switching a few students (splitting groups of students). Next

week we will meet in Mrs. Y’s room at 8:30. We will give drachmas for perfect

attendance tomorrow. Friday of this week we will come up with a plan for positive

postcards and positive phone calls. Everyone looks tired. Robin needs a smoke

8:00 Meeting adjourned (took me awhile to spell that one)

I'm going to attempt find all of the blogs what we typed up over this past month and get the blog up to date....here goes

7:52 Meeting Started, we went over roles for our team. Many teachers don’t feel we know the kids.

We talked about early interventions with some students.

Teachers are a little unsure about the number and the relative location of Drachs. Room 219, MAKE SURE TO USE NEW DRACHS.

We will start writing up dress codes Wednesday.

Rebecca will ride her pink scooter.

That is all.
