January 9, 2017

Welcome Back




We hope you had a restful and much deserved break.  Below are a couple of reminders for this week.



  • Please make every effort to take attendance every day by 9:30 AM. 
  • All Being a Writer professional development sessions are required. Teachers please make sure that you put them on your calendar ahead of time.

Staff Meetings in January


 January 11th from 3:15 to 4:15

January 17th from 3:15- 4:15 Lynn Solari from Sacramento State will be making a presentation on the morning meeting. This presentation should last no more that one hour and we will begin at 3:15PM. I asked Lynn to present because I wanted to see how many of you might be interested in going through the 8 week training. This addresses the social and emotional needs of our students and aligns with our LCAP goals. The training will occur after school once a week for 8 weeks. 

January 25th from 3:15-4:15 PM. We will be discussing our mission and vision work more in depth and the two programs we have at Markham.   

Upcoming Events
 Grades 4-6 Spelling Bee is scheduled to take place on Thursday at 9am.  Please submit 2 candidate names and one runner up by Tuesday morning.
