BRAVE EDUCATORS



We have completed 4 days of the 2018-2019 school year and I don't know about you but those 4 days were challenging to say the least.  Each year I begin thinking that I've got it all covered and then I realize...nope, I am not done learning yet!

Thank you for putting yourself and your ego on the line on a daily basis while teaching students at our school.  Each year brings it own unique challenges and I am glad to work with such brave people that attack stressful opportunities head on.

I hope you are enjoying your extended weekend and that you're recharged and ready for this short week.  Since this is the beginning of a new month, here are your missions for this month. All mission must be completed by 9/30/18 to receive recognition.

Culture: Contact each of your homeroom students' families and give a positive shout out. Arts and Support Staff, pick at least 21 students' families to give a positive shout out to. These can be done in Dojo or over the phone.  A form will be placed in your box for documentation this week.
Mission Completed: Earns a Mission Accomplished Stamp on your Mission File and a GOOSE (Get out of school early pass).

Arts: Plan and execute an Arts Integration Lesson in Math and share out to staff in an email or social media post. Must include pictures and a piece for student work and if using on social media use the hashtag #tceaarts
Mission Completed: Earns a Mission Accomplished Stamp on your Mission File and a Jeans Pass.

Academic: Complete and document at least one of the strategies shared by Ms. Covington. Please follow the directions in the memo to share.
Mission Completed: Earns a Mission Accomplished Stamp on your Mission File and a visit from the Hoot! Hoot! Cart

Personal: Pick two other people at work and create a Trio Accountability Model.  Each of you will hold each other accountable for a personal goal set by each person for themselves.  You will have to submit pictures of your trip meeting at least four times this month and email pictures and your goals to ahill@capitolencoreacademy.org
Mission Completed: Earns a Mission Accomplished Stamp on your Mission File and a Coffee/Tea Delivery to your room/office.

Thanks again for an amazing week and I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! Angela
