EMINTS: Please let me know if you are interested in eMints or eMints4 all training for next year?  We didn’t start a class this year because of the move.  The program fits better for teachers in a regular classroom. Cindy Matzat is the instructor.  Teachers that participate do get paid to attend the classes.  Let me know if you are interested.
Student Teachers: We currently have two student teachers assigned to CRE for the fall of 2014. Jordan Randoll will be working with Ms. Yabusaki in 1st and Ariel Pearson will be working under Mrs. Harris in 3rd. Mrs. Thompson is in the process of gathering additional information on a 3rd request for student teaching at CRE in the fall as well.  We will share that assignment once all information is finalized.
There is a Service Learning project up for grabs: Divas Half Marathon and 5k,  where our school will receive a $200 donation from the Divas organization for each time slot you work.  Students may participate and count in your numbers at the station but need to be supervised by adults.   This event will take place on Sun. May 5th from 6 a.m. to 11a.m. and would be adults and children hosting a drink station on the loop. If you are interested and would like more information, just let me know.District Office PLC has been rescheduled for May 23rd at CRI from 3:00-4:00. Please be punctual as we plan to begin and end on time.

As a reminder when purchasing incidentals for use in your classroom, the expectation is that you would continue to use the school Walmart card when applicable or present the Tax Exempt Letter at the time of purchase. We will not longer reimburse the sales tax portion of incidental purchases.

Grades for 4th Quarter: Grades are due June 2nd, Hard copies and email blast will go out on June 4th

Bucket Fillers: Jane Hasler and Melissa Halbrook created a Spring wall display and made the snowflakes go away. Thank you both for your extra efforts to pour into the Climate of CRE.
April Mulnik hosted a Writer’s Celebration that highlighted her students skill level in the writing process and gave them reason to celebrate all their hard work. Memorable experiences such as this, create moments for students and teachers to reference for years to come. Thank you, April.
Michelle Brown is masterful at keeping many balls in the air. I appreciate, so often, her gentle prodding on topics in need of my attention. Thank you, Michelle for your dedication and steadfast commitment.
