Hi All,

I’d like to congratulate El Camino del Río’s ACE Award Nominees:

Licensed: Justin Potts, School Psychologist, Student Services Department

Classified and Lifetime Achievement Award: Craig Young, Custodial Maintenance Coordinator I

Volunteer: Heidi Dixon, River Road/El Camino del Río Elementary School and Spencer Butte Middle School

Volunteer: Amy Green

Each of you are very deserving of your nominations, so thank you for all your work! We have many folks in our building worthy of ACE Awards. ACE nominees will be celebrated at the awards ceremony at Churchill High School on Wednesday, May 23, 5:30–7:00PM. The event is free and open to the public. Nice work, you four!

 

Here are this week’s announcements: 

• Staffing Updates – We held interviews last Thursday for our new 1st grade teacher.  We should have a recommendation sent to HR this week.

•ELL Update – I heard some awesome news from Nancy on Friday.  We tested 103 students in the ELPA 21. That is more than any other MS.  21 students were exited from ELD this Spring using the ELPA 21 assessment. This is more student exited than we have ever accomplished. By comparison, last year we assessed 100 and exited 11 students. Your hard work is paying off across the school! THIS is why we have a Dual Language program!

Journeys & Being a Writer Materials Order DUE FRIDAY – Orders are due this Friday by following this link for Journeys and Being a Writer Materials for next school year. See the linked Piktochart for details. Also, check that you have the right amount of  Maravillas materials for your classroom next year.  Ask MariCarmen about the projected classroom sizes and get your numbers to verify.

• EA & Teacher Title 1 Summer School Jobs – EA’s, if you are interested in returning and previously worked at summer school you do not need to apply. If you are interested and have not previously worked as a Summer School EA, watch the 4J Jobs website because it will be post soon. Teachers, the posting for Title 1 Summer School Teachers is already on the 4j website and closes Tuesday.

Classified Evaluation appointment – Do not forget to make a classified evaluation appointment so you can complete the process.
