Hi All, 

I hope that you all are enjoying this weekend. Somehow it is almost October! Holy moly.  This dreary day has me with a bit of the "fall scaries." I'm not feeling quite ready to let go of the sunshine.  I wanted to let you know that this week Rowan has a previously scheduled ENT/Audiology appointment so I will be out of the building for half a day on Friday. I plan to be back around lunchtime. 

News and Announcements: 

• Vector Goals---I've had two meetings! :) Pop into my calendar and set up some time to connect about goals. All meetings must be done by the 15th of October.
• Relocation Drill--This will be happening on Thursday October, 8th. 
• Staff Website/Blog Links: The staff website is continuing to be updated with meeting times and resources. Additionally, if you click the links at the top of the blog it will bring you to the website and the school year 26-27 folder that has much of our information.
• If you see something that is not correct or needs to be changed please let me know! 
• Reminders that the tabs on the side of our meetings list has coverage for meetings.

• Email from Jessie: As mentioned during inservice days, I am trying to open up the Makerspace to all students. If you are interested in having your students use the Makerspace for a project please fill out the following form: https://forms.gle/TxhbDyFx2qE6RUoS9. I will be happy to collaborate a time to host your class in the library to use said Makerspace. This lesson would be in addition to your class library time.
