Welcome back!
We have new staff joining us this year. Filling the Speech and Language Pathologist position is Morgan Kelner. She brings with her more than 20 years of experience in this specialty field. Two paraprofessional positions have been filled. We welcome Phyllis Tillinghast and Loretta Wilson.
Calais teachers have been working throughout much of the summer planning their curriculum, taking courses, and in other ways honing their craft. Most recently, teachers have spent time in August preparing their classrooms, which look bright, cheerful and inviting. They are eager to continue with Responsive Classroom discipline during the first weeks of school and work to build community within their classrooms. This foundation is essential to ensure quality instructional time throughout the school year. Responsive Classroom philosophy also will guide the creation of lunchroom recess and bus rules.
