Hey Panda Family,
Are you ready for round 2? I'm not sure when we will get back to school, but I appreciate all your efforts this week as you worked remotely. Thank you for finding ways to connect with your families, provide support to them when needed, and the work you did with your grade level/department this week so we are fully ready to resume instruction once this winter weather passes. Stay safe and think warm thoughts! 😉
Here are the Weekly Wrap updates for this week:
New Updates
Mclass MOY Window: I have not gotten word yet on how long the Mclass MOY window will be extended due to the inclement weather. Once I have this information I will be sure to pass it along.
Class Pictures: Class Pictures have been rescheduled for February 9.
Red Rover: Red Rover goes live for all staff on Monday, February 2 (even if we are working remotely). Here is a link to the directions: Red Rover Training. The district sent out a detailed email to all staff this morning. If you need any help or assistance please reach out to Ms. Owens.
PTA Meeting: Our monthly PTA meeting will be on Tuesday, February 3 @ 6:00 in the Media Center.
HR Mobile: Representatives from the Human Resources department will be at Piney Grove on Thursday, February 5 from 1:00 - 4:00 to answer any of your HR related questions around pay, leave, retirement, etc. This is drop-in only. They will be located in Ms. Gardner's office.
Classroom Guidance (from Ms. Ceglowski): Please sign up for a classroom guidance lesson for 3rd quarter. If we were scheduled for this past week, you can just sign up again. Maybe we will be back by March.🙂 Here is the link to sign up: Book time with Ceglowski, Jessica
Staff Intent Form: I am beginning to start my planning processes for next school year. If you could please fill out this intent form for me by February 6. This information allows me to accurately plan once I receive my allotment from Human Resources. If you have any questions, or you want to meet with me individually, please don't hesitate to reach out. Here are the forms:
Mclass Progress Monitoring: Progress monitoring will resume in February. Here is the link to the progress monitoring calendar: Mclass Progress Monitoring Schedule.

Proctors: Flynn, Bowman, Seely, Idol, Vermilyea, Postle, Russell
Please don't hesitate to contact Ms. Guffey with any questions or concerns.
HB 805: A new state law has been passed that now requires us to catalog our classroom libraries and provide these lists to parents if they ask. Here is the information principals received - House Bill 805. MTAC has shared some very easy steps to accomplish this task. I know this is not ideal, and somewhat of a hassle, but we have to do it (sorry). We will discuss it more in PLTs if you have questions. Here is a link to the directions if you want to go ahead and knock it out - Catalog Your Classroom Library. If you would like a volunteer to help catalog your classroom library for you please complete this form - Request for a Volunteer to help catalog. All cataloging must be completed by 2/2/2026.
Paw Form Consequences: Here is the list of acceptable and unacceptable classroom consequences if a student gets a Paw Form. We will continue to add to this list, and I will be communicating these changes to parents soon. Here is the list: Paw Form Consequences
PTA Reimbursement Link: Don't forget, every teacher gets $100 from PTA to go towards your classroom and your students. You will buy the items and then get reimbursed from PTA. Here are the links to submit your receipts for reimbursement. If you have any questions, please reach out to Ms. Owens and she can help you. Here are the links:
