Quality Review – Physical Space Walkthrough
As a reminder, we will have visitors on Tuesday, April 12th who will be observing our instruction and school culture.  Throughout the day admin may be asking for artifacts on behalf of the visitors such as student work, student folders, etc. 

In preparation for the Quality Review we will be doing a Physical Space Walkthrough at the end of business on Thursday April, 7th.  Please view the Classroom Responsibilities (Page 49) section of the PNA Staff Handbook.  The handbook can be accessed at the following link: https://drive.google.com/a/pablonerudaacademy.org/file/d/0B3PxGWud2LygbTFKVG5OZGtiZDg/edit
Co-Planning opportunity
Thanks to the hard work of the Grants and Partnerships team, we were able to secure a grant to support the ELLs in our school.  Part of grant money will allow Ms. Linares and Ms. Theoharides to co-plan with teachers that do not have ELL push in services.  If you are interested in taking advantage of this opportunity, you may contact Ms. Linares (wlinares@pablonerudaacademy.org) or Ms. Theoharides (NTheoharides@pablonerudaacademy.org) to set up your co-planning sessions.
Parent Visits
If you are planning to meet with a parent, please be sure to inform Ms. Santos in the process.  She is able to support the meeting scheduling as well as the completion of the parent survey.
Field Trip Calendar
There are a number of trips scheduled from now through May.  Please refer to the Field Trips calendar (shared with the staff earlier this year) prior to submitting a trip request to ensure availability.
Youth Court Referrals
The PNA Youth Court is a great alternative to traditional disciplinary action.  If you have a situation where you believe an alternative disciplinary action may be a superior response, please use the Youth Court Referral form or the Youth Court Referral function on Skedula.  The form can be accessed at the form page on our PNA google site. (https://sites.google.com/site/pablonerudaacademynyc/pna-meeting-notes). If you have any questions about the Youth Court, please contact Mr. Dinner (ldinner@pablonerudaacademy.org).
PNA Lesson Planning Process
During the last staff professional development, we were able to go through the PNA Lesson Planning process as a group.  Some teachers have asked to have the process readily available.  The PNA Lesson Planning Process has now been posted to our curriculum planning page.  The Process, as well as other curriculum resources, can be found at the following link: https://sites.google.com/site/pnacurriculumplanning/curriculum-planning-templates
