TPA GOALS in TALENT ED
All goals should be in Talent Ed. As we continue to work on
making progress toward your goal and how you will present
what you have learned, apply the 3 PLC questions to yourself:
What do I want to learn?
How will I know if I have learned it?
What will I do once I figure that out?


If interested, take a look at the division web page for TPA,
to see timelines, and detailed criteria for identifying Applied,
Integrated, and Innovative practice.


TECH TEAM FOR OCTOBER 9TH PTO MEETING
We have a couple of volunteers for presenting how we
Use technology for learning here at BES. We need to
confirm a primary and upper teacher to do a 20 minute
presentation for parents that will attend the Oct 9th PTO
meeting at 6:30pm. Let Jason know if you are interested.
You can receive up to 5 PD points and DINNER!


LANYARDS and YELLOW EMERGENCY FOLDERS
By next week all classrooms and gradelevel teachers will
receive their student information lanyards and yellow
emergency folders. Let admin know if you have any questions.


RECESS EQUIPMENT
Teams,
Please keep and eye on the recess equipment and
bring it in when we need to. We lost 5 new, nice, basketballs
already.
