Agency in the Time of COVID

QUEST! Here is a nugget of wisdom to support your empowerment of student choice, voice and ownership.

Click here to read a post from the "Making Good Humans" blog entitled, "Agency in the Time of COVID." The message is strong and relevant.

Some highlighted parts that I personally loved:

"We need to respect that they (like all of us) have gone through change, uncertainty, and potentially loss and trauma. Now more than ever we must see them as whole human beings – not partially complete adults-in-the-making."

"No Secret Teacher Business... Make the "why" transparent."

"Stay critical about what's worth learning."

"Plan in response to learning... So although it can be difficult to let go of those perfectly laid out curriculum maps and long range plans and unit designs… we might find that this year, getting to know our learners and their families first, then involving them in decision-making and planning and always going one step at a time might be a more fruitful approach.

Enjoy! 😁💡🌏

BLOG VIDEO SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS below...do our students know what success will look like by the end of each lesson we teach? 

What quadrant are you spending your time in? How can you add quadrant 2 activities to your life? 

Social Media and our students...

Team,

 I was recently reminded about being careful with what is retweeted or shared out on social media—we had communicated with parents via multiple forums about masks AND six feet, and at times there has been communication (pictures) out there as a district where that is not occurring. We are being thoughtful with it as a school, but this is a general reminder that I wanted to pass along.

Right now, we are still six feet and social distancing, but please keep this in mind when sharing out celebrations with pictures. We are doing a great job as a school with social distancing, however, I know how hyper-critical people can be given the current state of Covid.

I have received ZERO complaints so far from families about this topic, but because this was shared with me from the district level I wanted us to remain vigilant as well.

Thank you!

Derek

FEAST meal 20-21

 Team,

As you can imagine, FEAST will be quite different this year. We have some classrooms working on virtual presentation options, but one shift is that Food Service will be providing a turkey, feast style meal on November 19th and 20th. They will provide it all, and we will follow the lunch schedule for that day--monitors will still provide regular coverage. Unfortunately, we will not be cooking and eating all as one like year's past, however, this will be a free meal that all students can get on the day they are in (Cohort 1 or 2). If an adult wants this lunch as well, they would need to pay $4.10

Thanks so much to Mrs. Stanford for organizing the sign-up for us!

Please follow the directions below to order the lunch for your students:
