1. Has there been a staff member at Field who you would like to recognize for a job well done or going above and beyond? We are going to begin honoring two staff members each month as our Staff of the Month. Parents, students, and staff members can nominate someone who has impacted their life and learning. Because we are at the beginning of the year, you may need to pull from past experiences. Nominations can be emailed to me at: jbagwell@spsmail.org. Please know I will hold on to nominations not selected each month for future consideration. Staff of the Month will be honored at school and announced on the outdoor sign. Thank you for helping us recognize our awesome Field Staff!

2. Because we are a part of the IB World School Community, we have to participate in a self-study evaluation. Field staff have been working on this study since January of 2011. As a part of the study, we need feedback from parents about our school. We will have an online survey accessible to parents the week of September 12. The link will be on our web site and we will send it out through Constant Contact. Thank you in advance for you efforts and time in completing the survey.

3. Ever wonder what Glendale is like?? Field students have the opportunity to visit Glendale with their parents to experience a little taste of high school. Glendale has created the Future Falcon's Soar program to encourage persistence to graduation in the Glendale Feeder Pattern.  Our first date is October 14 from 9:35 to 11:10am. Please contact JJ if you would like to be put on the reservation list.

Also, I have started a Principal's Blog which you can access from the Field website. I hope this will be another useful source of communication for you throughout the year.

With the Children in Mind,

Dr. Bagwell, Principal
