Partnership Educators,
What a great start to the year.  Kids were playing on the playground first thing in the morning and smiles were abundant.  Great job everyone pulling together and making this start another great one.

The first day of school is exciting but it can also be a bit anxious for students and staff!  I saw some great first-day openers that I know helped to relax everyone and make that day special.   Loved the first-day picture keepsake that Manzanita teachers put up for students and parents to take advantage of.  I have seen some teachers actually take pictures of each of their children on the first day as a keepsake for later in the year.   

Many teachers reported doing a full introduction and teacher Q&A with their students.  Having fun with kids learning about you is a good way to make connections. What's your favorite food? Color? Animal? Candy? etc... can sometimes open doors.  It was also great to see the campus tours for students.  Positive Behavior Instructional Supports is alive and well within our district and we know that these tours and teaching moments just help to set our kids up for success.  Of course, I couldn't leave out the dancing principal at Bonny View to greet the cars and kids on that first day at drop-off.  

Thanks for all your hard work to put this first week together.  What we do helps to build the stories of the students that we serve.   We are part of the support systems that develop students' lives.  You are helping build young people's lives.

Have a fantastic weekend,
