Praise Report
Head of School
HAPPY TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK!!!!!
We all know there's nothing traditional about LAVCA. Although we can't honor you in person this upcoming week like most schools will, please know that we've "got" you covered. We look forward to celebrating you and all of your accomplishments this school year in the weeks to come. Thanks for ALL you do!
If a doctor, lawyer, or dentist had 40 people in his office at one time, all of whom had different needs, and some of whom didn’t want to be there and were causing trouble, and the doctor, lawyer, or dentist, without assistance, had to treat them all with professional excellence for nine months, then he might have some conception of the classroom teacher’s job. ”

Letters of Intent For School Year 18-19
What a morale booster to have received all of your responses with the intent to return. As always, as we continue to solidify updates moving into next year under School Redesign, I will keep you abreast. I'm very excited about next year's vision, as well as the required support from the DOE. The focus will be creating revised expectations for teachers, leaders, and families at LAVCA this fall. This essential communication would align with important schedule changes that prioritize time on tasks for students, learning time for adults, and leadership development for instructional officers.
Stay tuned!!!
Have a great weekend! Get some rest and enjoy festival time in Louisiana!

FAST Team
FASL will have students in their classrooms to monitor until 18th.
That's wonderful news! It took a lot of encouragement, some tough love that involved grounding, and taking his LEAP tests to wake E up and get him to see that he had to work harder. I can also say that the Back On Track program has been helpful and I adore Rachel Resweber! Then again, I haven't met a teacher at LAVCA I didn't like! They are all so amazing! I've met teachers at lots of schools, and a lot of them do seem to care. However, the teachers and staff at LAVCA are on a whole other level of caring and dedication I've never seen anywhere else! Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Jennifer
