August 20,2023
We are here! Good evening Pershing Family. I hope each of you had an amazing weekend as we quickly approach August 22, 2023 the date when we will welcome 873 students to our campus. I know each of you have worked hard to get your rooms together, design lessons and activities, learned a new curriculum, and many more as we kick off the 2023-2024 school year. All of those things are important, but they don’t come alive without YOU! I have confidence in all of you, as you work in your role to ensure high levels of learning for all students. I can’t wait to see you loving on our students this week. It will be a great week!
Remember we will have a team photo tomorrow after we gather for 1 more day of learning. Please wear our new Pershing T-shirt.

Student Handbooks
The 2023-24 student handbooks have been printed for each student in the district. The 2ndpage of the handbook needs to be filled out and secured from all students and families. We want to have this in place for students to attend school events. We will give students a week (by Tuesday, August 29) to obtain the parent/guardian signature and return to school.

Teaching Building Expectations Information (Will be discussed more during staff meeting tomorrow)
Remember 100% of Pershing will be taught building expectations. HERE are the slides to correlate with the above schedule. Incorporate day 1 slides to your class presentations each hour of the day. Day 2,3, and 4 you will be physically moving students to banners in the hallway where you will talk about how to be Safe, Responsible, and Respectful in the designated areas. Make sure to teach students how to line up and walk in the hallway respectfully.

ALL teachers who have a 7th hour (5 star) will deliver the same information for the first nine days. Throughout these nine days, slides and lessons have been created, delivering Pershing expectations and lessons helping students gain 21st Century tools.
