Exploding out of the starting gate with a week of orientation & student success
We began the week with a 1 1/2 day orientation during which time we set and worked through our procedures and expectations, participated in team building exercises, and took local cap and gown pictures to begin our journey with the end in mind. We established the concept of growth mindset that will guide our work throughout the school year. Once Wednesday rolled along our team and our students began the work toward each student's individualized graduation plan. Our counseling team of Ms. Dvorak, family specialist Ms. Gonzales, and our homebound team all stepped up to begin the full scope of our mission, which values the social and emotional well being of our students along with our academic goals. Friday was ended with a kind donation from one of our parents and a celebration of student achievements including perfect attendance, course credit earned, and a focus on excellence. Our team cannot wait to open our doors for week 2!
