Observations/Lesson Plan
Observations and walkthroughs have begun.  As mentioned during our staff meeting, as well as in the staff handbook, the expectation for this year is that a copy of your lesson plan will be in the door basket outside your room each day.  Alternatively you may keep an additional copy of your lesson plan in a binder or folder labeled “Lesson Plan” on your teacher desk if you are concerned about leaving it on the door.  A lesson rating will be negatively impacted if there is no lesson plan available.
Observation selection - Option 4
On Wednesday, September 10th the City announced that there will be an Option 4 (Minimum of 4 informal observations) for teachers rated Effective during the 2013-14 school year.  Teachers who were rated Effective and have already selected Option 2 (Minimum of 6 informal observations), your selection will be automatically changed to Option 4.  Teachers who were rated Effective and have already selected Option 1 (Minimum of 1 Formal, and 3 Informal observations), must notify Mr. Liu if you would like to change to Option 4.
Parking Lot Entrance
Please be advised that the campus provides a school aide to monitor parking lot entrance until 8:30am.  After 8:30 AM all staff must enter through the main entrance, there are no exceptions.  This is necessary to ensure campus safety.

If there is a new student who needs access to Achieve 3000 or if you need information on student sign in information please contact Mr. Valencia (DValencia@pablonerudaacademy.org).
