The focus this month: Paradigms
I hope that you spent some time reflecting on the pardigm of leadership and finding ways to show leadership in small ways. I saw examples throughout the week. Super job! The paradigm of potential is that EVERYONE has genius. We had conversations about this paradigm in our 5th grade classes last week. This week, I encourage you to spend some time identifying the genius in the staff and students at Bullock: academically, musically, physically, technologically, socailly, etc. Let someone know with the name tags provided in your mailbox (Mr/Ms. is gifted as____________).

PLCs: Please let me know where your PLCs will meet each week if not noted below.

We will continue to save time for "big rock" PLC activities of data analysis, work analysis, assessment and professional learning.

New Assistant Cafeteria Manager: I am thrilled to announce that our won Kim Pyrant has been selected as the assistant manager for the Bullock cafeteria. Kim has shown her dedication to Bullock for many years. She knows the job "like the back of hand" and will do a fantastic job in her new role. Congratulations Kim!
