Welcome to do an extra money and Anthony Barney this is my eighth year as principal at ditto Elementary School in serving this community that Squat and I just want to express my my appreciation and would have to get for three things that we go through in navigating this challenging school year and that is your patience and your kindness and we are very excited to be here in learning with your kids at our school and with with patience and kindness will be able to navigate all the challenges that we go through as we did successfully last year is the welcome to den let's carry on what it what is it that we're so excited about when there's so many different things as I mentioned we are in person I will welcome them back or shoot pool day before 6 our school last year we were naughty do a full 6 hour day but this year we are will be able to play with sports equipment that have we we missed out on last year students are no longer sectioned off into cohorts outside and inside and so they're able to and have some moments together on the yard and they get jealous of cherry that on not just on the yard but in their classroom as well so we're students are able to do some pair sharing and even in some cases student groups. distance between each other and they're even able to come down to the carpet for portions of their day our teachers are doing a great job to making sure that we have our seating charts and all areas so that if there was a case where we needed to contact face and that is something that we've done really well for starters clear and there's so many other things that you can't put the paper that is why we're so excited to be back here in on campus that we can feed to be safe with all that being said would you need to make sure that we are safe we do continue to follow the Mandate that has been put forth West by our Public Health officials meeting that students that are indoors will be wearing that as well as a staff at all times endorse in while we're outside inside the options that have the option to remove their Mass to get some of that fresh air indoors unless we have a doctor's note stating that a student needs a shield we're asking. Fallout mask mandate again for our safety and again that's been pushed down from the state's Public Health officials alright I'll see combat the the issues that we have class we have two air purifiers preach and when we have common areas like a cafeteria or Library we have more than two to get that purification of the air is a helpful thing we are in the process of replacing are filters in a AC and Heating units we have been up to date on those are our systems are due in a couple months and so each classroom has their own system which means that the Air does not cross from one class from the other which is a very helpful and beneficial thing up to date on that we can provide tpe for students and staff can you sanitizing we're here for you and then we also brought on a lot more outside table to wear teachers and classes can go outside one's nice day and do some of their learning outside Outdoors to get some of that fresh air and then lastly for any students desks and families that would like to remain on just learning as a message we are 100% good morning however we have partnered with so much in County Office of Education to offer assembly Bill 134 students to have a distance learning option going through the county operator but let's get down to what is the title one program is a program that provides us with funds to help our students support our students that are at risk of not obtaining or meeting Common Core State Standards what's that mean allows us to these funds that we received from the government allows us to support students in lots of different ways whether be within the classroom or with personnel this year then Elementary is receiving a large portion Title 1 funds of $159,268 and because of these funds like I mentioned before they're off we're able to offer our teachers and are instructional aides and our staff trainings in a variety of areas to help that learning of he's kind of course dinner and some of those areas are on this life not only do we offer training for staff we also use those funds to offer programs to gather data and assessment data for us he came through five on the slide you'll see that we have star Renaissance Learning which is early literacy star reading star Maps course we also used Title 1 funds for PLC collaboration days you come and gather and analyze that data to help form our groups of intervention Title 1 funds helps support these initiatives on our campus and I'll see you in that picture.
