Enjoy your well deserved three day weekend! Make memories with loved ones and catch up on some well needed sleep.
DID YOU KNOW:
- that there are inventory lists on our faculty website? Check out all three tabs to see what is available to you in the broadcast studio closet, the garden, and your storage rooms. If there are materials you need, please see your house lead to learn how to write a PO for approval.
- we have a new MLI Designer joining us? Her name is Mary Kennington and we couldn't be HAPPIER to have her! Please take time to email her and welcome her to our famiLEE! She will be emailing the designers of our 4 MLI learners.
- with campus mobility and some spaces not having phones, we could benefit from having everyone's cell number in one place. If you are comfortable, please share your number here. When the office has an urgent message, they can contact you. Your number will NOT be shared outside of our staff.
- we are going to have to request that staff members park in the back parking lot, if you arrive after 6:30am? With so many employees, there are not enough spots when parents come for lunch. Duc is unlocking the second set of back doors by 6:30, so you should have no trouble getting safely inside.
UNITY RALLY
See you in the gym at 8:00, tomorrow, for our UNITY RALLY. I LOVE THIS IDEA and can't wait for our school spirit to be celebrated. Thank you to our #unitysquad for their planning and follow-through!
If you would like to buy an Ed Foundation t-shirt, and get an extra jeans day the first Tuesday of each month, stop by the front office for an order form or go online to www.coppellisdef.com Orders will be taken from Aug 29- Sept 21 and delivered the first week of October.
FED EX DAY
Enjoy your one hour on Wednesday where you learn about a topic of YOUR choice related to YOUR goals, and earn Flex credit for it. This is a time for learning. Please post to Today's Meet after 4:30, but before 5:00, on Wednesday and share what you learned during your time in order to get credit for your hour. We will send out a separate email about goals and these CAN be worked on during Fed Ex since they are due by Friday.
DYNA PRODUCTS
Are you using any DYNA products in your class (digital OR print)? I MUST talk to you if you are. This is a request from Dr. Waldrip.

New hires, don't forget to tweet out pics to @CoppellISDEF with images of your Back to School purchases with your Walmart gift cards. Be thinking about any @CoppellISD EF grants you want to submit.

WALKTHROUGHS
Ashley and I will continue to visit and give you feedback on the "3.1 Learning Environment" portion of the TTESS Walkthrough form. It was DELIGHTFUL visiting your spaces this week. By the end of next week, each of you should have a minimum of one walkthrough, each. Remember there is a comment button to chat electronically about your comments. Also, if you want to visit about the snapshot we are open to chat ANYtime!
