You do an excellent job.  I think you are transparent and open about what is going on.  I never question if there is something I am doing wrong, as I know you will communicate any concerns. I also do not have a problem coming to you with any questions or concerns that I have.

I love that we try to connect our families with local resources and services, as well as giving back to various organizations

We can do better with our gifted students, especially at the younger grade levels, before services are offered

It blows me away to see the change in the community's thoughts about Columbia Elementary.  We went from a school that was in danger of being eliminated and with a very poor reputation, to a school that parents wish their kids attended.

It would be nice to create a fun and welcoming atmosphere right away at the start of school, instead of testing right away..

It would be nice to have more specific opportunities to develop and improve classroom instruction by visiting classrooms that implement certain practices. ex: classrooms that are already using Lucy Calkins writing program.

Could we have more time with our grade levels across the district for professional development??

You do well in this area of communication.  The Tiger Newsflash is very nice!  Also, the weekly update keeps good communication going within our building.  The weekly update can sometimes be overwhelming to read as it contains so much information.

Maybe have a staff meeting monthly or bimonthly just to check in and see if there is anything that needs addressed......

Communication is a strength.  It would be nice to see more equal representation of grades on Facebook, maybe submitting pictures for that weekly.  Twitter has very few followers, but everyone is on Facebook.

I agree with the comment above. Starting testing at the beginning of the school year starts us all off with a negative mindset.

I'm excited for the new reputation of Columbia as well. We are now known as a great school and I hope it continues. Facebook and Class Dojo have been great ways to communicate with parents and the community. Parents greatly appreciate all of the pictures posted to these social media spots.

More time to work on and develop newly implemented programs/tools. We have too many meetings and too many requirements that prevent us from having time to work in our classrooms.

Communication is a strength. Weekly updates are informative, but overwhelming. Facebook and Class Dojo are wonderful communication tools. Google Classroom has been nice, but is still lacking some information. It would be nice if everything we needed was in one spot. Google Drive is great (in theory), but becomes incredibly overwhelming because we can't find what we're looking for at times. Is it possible to archive old shared items? Or is it possible to make a list of what documents are called? I don't know what would make it easier, but Google Drive is getting very overloaded.

When a student is sent to the office for a discipline issue that has occurred outside of the classroom it would be helpful to communicate this in some way to the classroom teacher. Perhaps if an incident report has been made a copy could also be sent to the classroom teacher.

I love morning annoucements this year! The students are getting valuable experience with public speaking and of course they love to see pictures of themselves!

Cafeteria time, end of the day bus/pick up time, and recess routines/rules can be a nightmare. All teachers have different expectations. We all need to be on the same page and expect the same things. We have some teachers who don't care what the students are doing or how loud they are and other teachers who enforce policies with consequences. The students have learned which teachers they can get away with things and which teachers are the "mean" teachers. We NEED to come together and expect the same things. Recess rules and cafeteria rules are the worst. Every teacher handles these duties differently.

Our mentor lunches are making a positive impact. This is an opportunity for informal talking and learning about eachother while Tiger Up time is more structured.

Could we scale back out Tiger Up time to 1 - 1 1/2 hours to gain back some academic time?

I don't know where else to put this but I feel the condition of our school does affect how the community may view our school. The inside of our school is dusty and dirty. It is noticed even as you enter at the front doors.
