                  Dear Dedicated Staff, It's hard to believe this is the last staff blog  of  the school year.  Thank you for taking the time  to read  it even though you are crazy busy with end of year items.   I want to commend those of you who are ALWAYS professional and focused on students, and kind and courteous to your colleagues and myself.  We all have an exhausting job, but it's time for a well deserved rest.   Change is always a challenge.  I applaud those of you who accept and welcome change with a  positive  attitude and as an opportunity for growth.  I hope you have a rejuvenating summer.  I'd love to have our returning staff over to my home for a cook-out in late August.   I'll be sending out an e-mail to those of you who check it.  I'll be in and out throughout the summer, so don't  hesitate  to text me if you have any questions.   We wish Beth Ann, Libbet, Greg, and Pam the best as they ...

                  Dear Tireless RES Staff, KUDOS to STAFF Who "Stepped Up":   Jen for helping out with Gr. 5-6 students that were not skiing so I could help at Ski Runners.   Señora for helping with lunch duty on Wed.! Pam for attending the PBIS Meeting!  Important Items to Know :     Ski Runners  - You would have been so proud of the  students on Friday at Ski Runners.  Their courage and joy abounded!  We got there a little late last week, so this week we want to make sure students are packed up BEFORE they go to recess.  Lunch will run as normal.  The option of indoor recess for those who are skiing will apply on Friday as well. Website  -  If you haven't redone your website, please consider doing so and make sure your dates are up-to-date as soon as possible.  The web is a great way to advertise our school - outdated websites don't help.  If you need help doing so, I'm happy to sit down with ...
