CALL TO ACTION
● CONTINUING OUR SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE DEVELOPMENT…
As a follow-up to the Yale University
Social-Emotional Intelligence presentation on the first day of school, please
take 5-10 minutes to complete this survey on our school culture and your
feelings about HSFI - we will soon begin our efforts to create a charter of
what feelings all HSFI stakeholders want to feel here at school - https://goo.gl/forms/8QPszzYOtQGXMpOQ2
This survey is for all staff - no matter your
position at HSFI - all responses are confidential.
● ENCOURAGE HSFI STUDENTS TO CHECK HSFI EMAILS
Supporting our college readiness theme,
remind your students that they should be checking their HSFI email every
day. Students should be getting in the
habit of checking their HSFI every day because they will lose out on many
opportunities if they don’t do so.
● INCREDIBLY MARKING PERIOD 1 IS WINDING DOWN
There are 11 class days left
until the end of marking period on October 21.
Send out Jupiter Progress reports to your students and contact families
of at-risk students.
● LET THOSE FASHION DOLLARS FLY
The FLY Grand Opening is coming
at the end of the month, so give out those Fashion Dollars to students to
positively reinforce to the behaviors you want in your classrooms and around
the building.
● HELP NEEDED!
(1) We still need Staff Mentors –
our at-risk students can use a helping hand to stay on the right track
(2) We need staff to oversee the
National Honor Society tutoring during 9th period everyday except
Wednesday. Our NHS do all the work, you
just need to oversee their efforts.
INSTRUCTIONAL
REMINDERS
● INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION PLAN SUPPORT
IEP
meetings are in progress; Please be sure to submit teacher reports when asked
to do so and participate in IEP meetings when invited. You're participation and
insight is crucial in creating a quality IEP.
● JOIN OUR GOOGLE+ INSTRUCTIONAL BEST

community where we can share instructional best practices with one another - https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/108500685866740418716
This community is a repository
for best instructional practices that utilize technology to enhance teaching
and learning. We welcome you to share your practices with colleagues and

OPERATIONAL
NEED TO KNOW
● CHECK YOUR DOE & HSFI EMAILS EVERYDAY
● HSFI STAFF HOMEPAGE LINK - https://sites.google.com/a/hsfi.us/hsfi-staff-portal/
● GIVE FLYERS YOU WANT POSTED TO STUDENT
GOVERNMENT
Thank you for your enthusiasm
with your clubs and activities & wanting to spread the word with flyers
posted around the building. Do not post
them randomly around the building – we have bulletin boards on every floor specifically
devoted to student clubs and activities.
Leave your flyers in Assistant Principal Steve Rau’s mailbox and he will
make sure student government representatives post them around the
building. Make enough copies for him so
it does not give him extra work.
● RESCHEDULED FIRST EVACUATION DRILL ON WEDNESDAY,
OCTOBER 5
This a notification that we plan to have our
rescheduled Evacuation Drill on Wednesday at 9:55 AM. During this timed
exercise, everyone is expected to leave the building. Additionally, below
you will find reminders and requirements that have been developed to insure a
safe and orderly evacuation:
▪ No individual may use the elevators
during a fire or drill of any kind. Limited mobility individuals
should be directed to the room ending in 29, on the floor that they are
currently on. First responders and floor wardens know to report to these
locations and provide assistance if necessary.
▪ Teachers should escort students to
the nearest stairwell on either side of the floor they are assigned. Staff
members should exercise prudence in determining what stairwell to use in case
of congestion.
▪ Teachers should remain with their class
for the duration of the drill.
▪ In the case of a drill classroom doors
should be locked upon exit to prevent loss of personal property. Students
should be directed to leave belongings behind.
▪ When on the street, staff members are
reminded to move students down the block, to the corner on either side.
Additionally, staff members should utilize assembly cards.
For those staff members
who are not supervising a class at the time of the drill (or true life
emergency), you are expected to assist floor wardens moving students off floors
in a calm manner. Students are not permitted to go to their lockers
during the drill
