Week of May 8th




STAFF SHOUT OUTS! 
Congratulations to our Teacher of the Year, Ms. Skinner, and to our Paraprofessional of the Year, Ms. K. Brinkley! You are rockstars and we are so fortunate to have you as part of our Hilsman family.  

Congrats as well to our Teacher of the Month, Mr. Spinks, and to our Staff Member of the Month, the one and only, Mr. Zeddie! 

From Ms. Seymour: 
Support the Hilsman Garden and your healthy lifestyle by attending our weekly produce market every Wednesday from 4-6 pm at Hilsman. We have fresh, local vegetables and herbs from the UGArden and HilFarm available for purchase, and can accept cash, check, and cards. Any EBT cardholders qualify for a 50% discount on veggies! We hope to see you there!

From Ms. G:

May 9Tuesday - EOCT HS Coordinate Algebra
May 10Wednesday - French 1 Final Exam
May 10Wednesday - Spanish 1 Exam (written)
May 11, Thursday - Spanish 1 Exam (oral)

Scheduling for Next Year: 
Hogan is finalizing the schedule for next year.  What she needs from you all: 
* 6th grade to schedule rising 7th grade ELTs (will share spreadsheet) 
*7th grade to schedule rising 8th grade ELTs (again, will share spreadsheet) 
*A list from 6th grade, 7th grade, & Connections teams of students who should not have classes together and any potential personality conflicts with teachers. (will share spreadsheet)

Once we have a final draft prepared, the scheduling committee will convene to provide feedback, edit, & revise. If you want in on the scheduling committee, we are an open group. Just shoot Hogan an email, so she can include you on the emails.  

Room Placements for Next Year: 
This is also in the works. Stay tuned. Since we are unteaming, Ms. Tolbert would like to have classrooms arranged so that content areas are clustered. If you are in a science classroom but you do not teach science, go ahead and prepare to pack it up. 

Calendar for Next Year: 
BY TUESDAY, Ms. Hogan needs each team to assist in creating our calendar for the 17-18 school year.  I have given each team leader the full calendar. Hand write the dates of any and all events for next school year.  This includes: field day, House party dates, any and all potential field trips that you are aware of, award ceremony dates and times, etc. Go ahead and set them now.  Hogan will meet with teams on Monday to answer any questions you have. 

End of Year Award Ceremonies: 
If you would like Hogan's assistance in making copies of invitations and programs for the ceremonies (only students receiving awards will be given invitations to take home to parents -- with the exception of the 8th grade moving on ceremony) she needs these items by the end of the day Monday.
