Supply Information for Teachers
Kathy Hanosky will be getting "basic" supplies for your summer school students, i.e. pencils, paper, notebooks. If there are specific or special supplies that you want, you will need to e-mail her your order by this Thursday, May 28th. Because of the rotations that most classes are doing, I won't give you your class lists right now, but this is how many students we have enrolled, at this point, in each grade level:
4th Grade = 53
5th Grade = 18
6th Grade = 14
7th Grade = 8
8th Grade = Mr. Holverson and Mr. Ziegler need to get me the names of the students that will be coming so I can get them on an attendance roll.
We always have students who drop out or others who enroll on or after the first day, so these numbers will change as we go
but, I hope this helps somewhat in your planning.

Paycheck Procedure
We received word from the district that teachers and staff for the Summer Learning Adventure will receive a separate check so as to avoid changes in pay from your regular teaching salary. Do not be alarmed when your regular paycheck does not reflect services performed during SLA. We hope this does not cause any undue stress. Thank you for your understanding.

Parent Information Letter
The following was sent to parents regarding the Summer Learning Adventure:
May/2009
Dear Parents,
This letter is being sent to parents with children who have been invited and have indicated that they will be attending this year’s summer school—now known as “Summer Learning Adventure.” Please read this letter in its entirety and keep it for reference. Summer learning activities will not be “school as usual.” Every effort will be made to design fun learning activities around reading, math and science. Our program will be a little different this year—it has a new name and it is being extended from three to five weeks. We will also have two Summer Learning Adventures being held. Students in Pre-School to 3rd grade will attend at our new Burton Elementary School with Mr. Jordan Busby as Principal. Students in 4th to 8th grade will attend at Madison Middle School with Mr. Scott Shirley as Principal.
This year, we have close to three hundred students in Grades K-8 that will be taking part in a five-week program. The dates for our Summer Learning Adventure are Monday, June 8th through Friday, July 10th. No activities will be held on Friday, July 3rd in observance of the July 4th holiday. Because time is so short, attendance will play a big part in the success that your child achieves. Please take note of the following:
Transportation
Busing will be provided from your child’s local school. These will serve as morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up points. Because bus drivers will have more than one school to be responsible for, it is imperative that parents, guardians or babysitters are punctual in dropping off and picking up. For the safety of all children, please wait with your child at the school until the bus has arrived; likewise, bus drivers have been instructed to not leave children unattended at the school. Please be aware that if a parent or other responsible party is late in picking up your child from the local school, it will become the responsibility of the parent to transport their child to and from Burton Elementary or Madison Middle School. We ask for your patience the first few days as bus routes are being planned out.
Please take note of the following times for school pick-up and drop-off times. In years past, these times have changed as the routes become more familiar. To help ensure that the busing goes smoothly, please be prompt in dropping off and picking up your child. If you are planning to carpool or drive your child to Burton Elementary or Madison Middle School for summer school every day, please be punctual in dropping off (by 8:30 a.m.) and picking up (by 12:30 p.m.).

Hours
Summer School begins at 8:30 a.m. and dismisses at 12:30 p.m. For the safety of your child, please do not drop your child off at school earlier than 8:20 a.m. Teacher planning and prep time is between 8:00-8:30 a.m. School personnel will not be out on duty until 8:20 a.m. Buses start arriving to take students home or to their local schools between 12:20-12:25.
Lunch
Students in Pre-School through 3rd Grade will get a break prior to lunch being served, beginning at 11:00 a.m., and a short break after lunch. Students in Grades 4-12 will have a somewhat different schedule and their lunch time will be the last ½ hour of the day. Lunch is free for all students attending Summer Learning Adventure.
Early Dismissal from Summer Learning Adventure
If you come to the school to pick up your child early for any reason, please make sure that you check them out in the office. If you need to withdraw your child for any reason, please inform the office so they can be taken off our enrollment rather than merely marked absent.
Discipline
Because time is so short, school personnel do not want to spend time dealing with discipline issues. In the event that a student is sent to the office for misbehavior, insubordination or unsafe behavior, etc., the following will take place:
First Offense – the student will visit with the principal and parents will be notified.
Second Offense – the student will visit with the principal and parents will be asked to come to the
school for a conference.
Third Offense - the student will be removed from summer school.
Contact Information & Cell Phone Use
Cell phones should not be brought to summer school. A telephone is available to the students for emergencies. If you feel that a cell phone is necessary for your student, they will need to turn off the ringer and not use the phone during class time.
In years past, we have found that trying to locate parents in the event of an emergency has been difficult because of changes to phone numbers and addresses. For the safety of your child, please answer questions and provide up-to-date information on the enclosed Summer Learning Adventure Information Sheet. In the event that parents cannot be reached, please provide local emergency or alternative contact information. It does no good to contact someone who is living in another city or state.
Please return the information sheet to your student’s school office no later than May 15th. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Mr. Busby at 359-3332 or Mr. Shirley at 359-3333.
Thank you,
Jordan Busby
Burton SLA Principal
Scott Shirley
Madison Middle School SLA Principal
P. S. On the first day of summer school, students in Grades Pre-School to 3rd Grade will meet in the Burton School gym at 8:30 a.m., and Grades 4-8 will go to the Madison Middle School Commons area by the fish tank. They will then be separated and taken to their classrooms by the teachers.

SLA Data Collection Responsibilities
We are responsible for collecting data on our SLA children grades Pre-8.
We need to know and keep track of each child's:
Grade, Gender, Reading and Math Proficiencies Pre/Post
We may use any of the following measures to determine proficiency:
NOTE: Districts opting to include local measures will weight their own verifiable multiple measures as 50% of the proficiency rating used to assess student performance in reading/language arts and math. (50% local, multiple measures, 50% State Assessment).
Multiple Measures may include:
· norm-referenced tests
· criterion-referenced tests
· performance-based assessments
· district-developed assessments
· class grades or other teacher assessments
· portfolios with rubrics
· Other valid and reliable measures
The following are items that I will be compiling during the summer, but I need your input in the decision making:
We have to list the Reading instructional goal that guided the Title I Summer Extended Time program (Please list Elementary, Middle, and Secondary goals separately).
We have to list the Math instructional goal that guided the Title I Summer Extended Time program (Please list Elementary, Middle, and Secondary goals separately).
In detail, please describe your Summer program (I will take care of this one).
I need bot secretaries to help me with this last one:
Additional requirements:
Ø Attach the daily schedule
Ø List the instructional materials used
Ø Include agenda from staff development for this specific program (this could be from faculty meetings, emails, blogs, etc.).
Also, we must provide an explanation as to how you relate them to the Title I Proficiency levels.

Attention SLA Teachers
Teachers: I have the gift cards for the teachers from Walmart for your class funds. Keep track of your receipts and submit them at the end of the year. I will be bringing them by your school for you to pick up.
