Welcome Carrie Forster!
Please help me in welcoming Carrie Forster back to Electa Quinney!!! Carrie will be joining us beginning on Wednesday, Sept. 27 through October 31st as a long term guest teacher for Hannah Cookey. Carrie retired in 2020 after teaching in various grade levels, most recently ending teaching 4th grade right in the very classroom Hannah occupies now. It is a privilege to have Carrie join the team and our school again!!!
Jeffrey Laatsch will complete the second half of guest teaching during Hannah's leave. We will welcome him Nov. 1 through Dec. 7. Thank you for helping both Jeff and Carrie feel at home.
A big thanks to Lori Greenthal for stepping in the last two weeks to teach Hannah's class of students!!!

Check out this blast from the past video from 2017! Love the Quinney spirit!!!
Important things to review...
School policies and procedures are a part of our daily work. They are designed to create a safe and orderly learning environment and put in place to protect students, ourselves as staff, and visitors. There are many policies and procedures as we all know and some in particular that are important for staff to stay in the know. Here are a few that we want to highlight in particular at this time and we will touch on them at staff meetings in October...
- Click to view this helpful Seclusion and Physical Restraint document to learn the important ins and outs about the procedures when needing to utilize seclusion or physical restraint with students. Full policies -- Policy 445 and 445 Rule
- 5 year Mandatory Reporter Training coming due for School Safety & Abuse and Neglect. Our last training was in 2018 so it is time for an updated training. DPI is making changes and we will discuss at our October staff meeting about what is needed to complete the updated Mandatory Reporter Training. Stay tuned.
Frontline (prev. My Learning Plan) Now Ready
The Frontline system is ready for you to begin working in. The first step is your SLO – Student Learning Objective. Helpful info is included below...
- This year you have until November 1st to complete your SLO.
- SLO is under "Goal Setting Process" in your evaluation are of Frontline. The document to complete is "Goal Setting Plan". Your SLO can relate to any of our EQ School Continuous Improvement Plans in Learning and Academics, Safe and Healthy Schools, and Retention/Connectedness.
- Consider a department or grade level goal as you collaborate and learn together.
- Self-Assessment – Choose one indicator as a strength in each standard and one indicator as a weakness in each standard. There are 6 standards. The indicators are the statements on the left 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc. So you will have two boxes filled for each standard - one strength and one growth area. Write in your one sentence reflection for each. So twelve boxes/sentences in total.
- PPG – Professional Practice Goal -- The PPG tends to get confusing. This is NOT/should NOT be the same as your SLO. It should be, what are you going to do in your “own professional practices” to make an impact on…your SLO goal OR maybe one of the areas you noted for growth on the Self-Assessment. Here are a few examples so you can see the difference between the two SLO/PPG. Please note that these examples are very detailed, however, that is not necessarily the expectation in your SLO/PPG.
Homecoming Spirit Oct. 2-6
During the week of Oct. 2-6, Electa Quinney Elementary will be celebrating homecoming along with the High School. To help all of our elementary students to feel a part of the festivities, we will have dress-up days as follows:
Monday, Oct. 2 : Disney/Superhero Day
Tuesday, Oct. 3 : PJ Day
Wednesday, Oct. 4 : Sports Theme
Thursday, Oct. 5 : Silly Socks or Hat Day
Friday, Oct. 6 : Orange/Black Kaukauna Spirit Wear
There will be a parade again this year. It will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 4 at 6:00 PM and will once again be held downtown. We would like students to enjoy the fun and spirit of the parade so our Elementary Schools will not walk in the homecoming parade. You can see more detailed information by clicking here.

Background Checks
As we start booking field trips, please remember that your chosen chaperones must have a valid background check on file. Please check with Shaina in the office. HR has stated that only individuals that have been chosen to go on a field trip should be turning in background check forms. Plan accordingly as background checks take about 2-3 weeks to process.

Classrooms will be asked to vote on their favorite team or video at the end of each week, and the three classrooms with the most votes at the end of the Movement Moment series will be eligible for a $1,000 grant to use for physical activity equipment. One national winning school, receiving an additional $1,000 grant, will be named in the Super Bowl Fitness Break broadcast. Registration for the Movement Moment weekly matchup is available on www.heart.org/nflplay60.
NFL PLAY 60 Exercise Library
A full NFL PLAY 60 Exercise Library is available to kids to help them add movement minutes each day.
