I was informed on Wednesday that Christian Family Services was able to find a qualified candidate for the School-Based Wellness Specialist (school counselor) position. Rachel Kroehnke is currently a member at the CORE in Appleton and will be joining us soon. More information will come on specific responsibilities she will have at our school, but we know it will be one day per week.


After discussion with our Treasurer & Business Manager the following changes will be taking place for Hourly employees:

  1. Hourly employees will be paid 2 times a month on the 5th and 20th. Pay periods will be the 1st to the 15th and 16th to the last day of the month. October 20th will be a catchup for any September days not included in the last paycheck.
  2. Any employee may now use direct deposit. Lisa will have forms available, and I will send an electronic form to all staff in a separate email later today or next week.

SOAR

Some of our big kids struggled to lead well during PBIS on Wednesday. I am brainstorming how to help them rise to the expectations we have for them as they lead. This coming Wednesday is an opportunity for you to work on your classroom community. Let me know if you need ideas for activities or learning targets. Please feel free to share your thoughts with me via email if you have thoughts or ideas related to helping our kids SOAR during whole-school activities. Thanks!
