Dear Madison Staff,

It’s short and sweet this week. Thank you to everyone who helped out just a little bit more with Beth out all week. Your efforts do not go unnoticed and they are very much appreciated. We have such a great team at Madison. Here’s a peek at the week ahead:

MADISON INFORMATION     

• Staffing Update: 
      
  
  • SPED EAs: Hopefully the 5.5 hour position will be posted this week
               
        
• LightSpeed: Classrooms at Madison have received LightSpeed voice amplification systems.  These were approved and paid through Bond funds.  It is important that teachers understand the benefits of these new systems as well as how to properly operate them.  This video from Lightspeed (Benefits of Instructional Audio) does a really nice job of explaining how the learning environment is improved by these systems, for students and staff.  It is just under 5 minutes…please share with your staff and encourage them to incorporate Lightspeed into their routine.

  Misty also included a link to training materials and other helpful resources.  If staff are experiencing issues or have questions regarding the use of the equipment, they can submit a help ticket to 4jdesktop@4j.lane.edu.

  I appreciate everyone is very busy and one more thing might seem overwhelming, but I think the benefits gained by the daily use of the Lightspeed system is well worth getting in the habit of using.

  Thank you for all you are doing and happy Thursday!
