Harwood Staff Blog Update - June 2, 2022

Team -


While the beauty and positivity of Harwood Spirit soared last week - the tragedy in Ulveda, Texas weighed heavily on our hearts and minds.  


As we all know, we are responsible for student’s safety when they are at Harwood.  The following is what we can do each day in order to facilitate our safety:      


  1. Wear our badge visibly

  2. Keep all external doors firmly shut and locked.  

  3. Only use doorways that open with our name badge

  4. If you see someone you don’t know - ask questions of that person and bring them to the front office.


Please know, as we look to next year we are prioritizing ongoing training and continued review of our safety protocols as we hopefully put the COVID protocols behind us.  


*Access to the building during weekends is possible during regular school hours - (8-4)  is fine - NOTE: The building is alarmed outside of this window


We’re almost there - 5.5 days left.  

With gratitude,

Meg, Laurie and Duane

Questions? 

See Jess Deane!

We’re almost there! Here’s how to cross all the t’s and dot all the i’s over the next week and a half…


Flex Block - You will give each student a final, summative score on 10.02 on your pink sheet (as well as including any other summative scores on other indicators). These sheets need to be turned in by the end of the day Monday, June 13th (this is different from what it says on the actual sheet). Want to get ahead of things? You can turn this sheet in anytime - get it done today and check it off your list! 


Finalizing Courses - Here is a slideshow with instructions/checks to make sure that course scores are finalized and comments are updated. Please read through the entire slideshow carefully and, as always, be in touch with any questions. I'm happy to meet on a 1:1 basis if you need any help! 


All updates in JumpRope, as well as turning a printed copy of your grades to school counseling, must be completed by noon on Tuesday June 14th.


Please find the End of year Inservice Schedule here.
