What a super week! By the end of Friday, I will have visited with fifteen applicants for our open positions. I have five more interviews scheduled for next week. So far THREE applicants stand out and I am recommending Sanela Pjetrovic for an in district transfer. Once her transfer is official, I will communicate to you so you can welcome her to our famiLEE. I will continue to keep you posted as we interview. I recognize that the changes of next year cause imaginations to run wild, but I encourage you to ENJOY THIS TIME TOGETHER. We will be taken care of!!

HAPPY CALLS
Have you taken the time lately to make happy phone calls to your learners? Remember doing these the first weeks of school? It is probably a good time to think about another round of these. It is a great way to keep that rapport with parents because SPRING FEVER is here!
GARDENS @ LEE
You have all done an incredible job of working in the garden beds these last two weeks. Thank you for locking everything up and taking care of our supplies. Please remember to clearly mark what is planted so that we can all learn from what grows. What a great place to take your learners out to make scientific drawings of the cycle of these plantings in their science notebooks.
FIELD TRIPS
Some of you are planning end of year field trips. Remember to use this document in planning and determining pricing. I must sign off on this before you send information home to parents. You also must remember to inform the cafeteria of your trip so that they can order accordingly. THANK YOU!
