Dear Adams' Fam!!
😍I know I mentioned this in the Webex - but felt worth repeating - if you ever notice a big safety issue - PLEASE do NOT hesitate to call me 480.203.4069. As I tell the kids all the time, my number one job is to ensure the safety of students on campus and my number 2 job is to ensure all students are learning at high levels! Of course I need the help of all of you to make sure this happens!
We are starting to have new employees start with us and I am asking each of them to take a picture so that we can post it on our All Staff Webex and introduce him/her. PLEASE extend welcomes to those people as you see them on campus! I'd also like to reintroduce other faces on campus that you may not get to interact with much so we can ensure you recognize everyone that is a part of the Adams Family!
If you have any fun ideas on how we can do this better - please share - we can always use the suggestions:)
Adams team - We got this!
Thank you,
Thank you,
Stephanie 🐯🧡

And Special Visits
We don't have any special visits that I can see next week - but we are having our Veteran's Day Parade!
Everyone should be finished with their Fundations training - so hopefully getting substitutes won't be as problematic - that's a celebration too right?!
And now with the hiring of two more IA's we shouldn't be AS short staffed on the playground or in the cafeteria! We still need more people though, so if you know of someone - please pass their name along or encourage them to apply!

Our November AVID Strategy of the month is Close Reading. Close Reading has some specific steps to help students navigate through a text and get more out of it. I am attaching a document that may help you with how to support your students to use the AVID strategy of Close Reading!
