Thank you to the families that took time from their busy schedules to attend the Principal’s Coffee Meeting this morning. If you would like to come to the next meeting on November 6th from 8:30-9:15, please contact Mrs. Stevenson.
I just finished meeting with some little grizzlies for our monthly Student Advisory Group. Today we discussed our R.O.A.R. matrix and P.B.I.S. I look forward to these meetings as the student voice is always very powerful…and funny at this age :)
Good morning,
Each month I host a “Principal's Coffee” meeting. Principal's Coffee is an informal opportunity for us to have a cup of coffee and meet with parents/caregivers from other classes within our school.
There is no official agenda, as I would like the format to be a casual conversation in which I can share what’s happening at the school, answer questions you may have, and discuss topics and ideas that relate to the Odessa-Montour Central School mission.
Our next meeting will take place on Monday, October 16th from 8:30-9:15
If you would like to attend, you can find contact information via "Rooms". If you have not signed up for that option yet, I would encourage you to do so as that will be my primary communication tool throughout the school year.
Mr. Nolan
Good morning,
I wanted to welcome you to “Rooms”, our new communication tool. For the past several years we have used Class Dojo. “Rooms” provides a more secure platform and will be our communication tool moving forward. “Rooms” will function in the same manner and allow my staff a way to strengthen our school-to-home communications. In addition to your teacher’s classroom account, I too have an account for all of B.C. Cate Elementary School and will share with you building messages, important dates, and pictures. I have asked my staff to keep their communications to you within the business hours and would ask that this is reciprocated. The reason for this is that we all have our own family obligations to attend to after school hours and taking some time away from digital devices each day also allows us to model to our children good digital citizenship.
Some teachers may choose not to use “Rooms” at this time and communicate through more traditional methods such as student planners, phone calls, e-mail, etc.
Thank you in advance for your patience as we adjust to this new system,
Mr. Nolan
