"We recognize that the fundamental purpose of our school and the reason we come to work each day is to ensure all students learn at high levels. We Understand that helping all students learn requires a collective, collaborative effort rather than a series of isolated efforts. We will work in teams to inform and improve individual and collective practices and to better meet the needs of individual students through intervention and extension."

Description of "Summer Enrichment."
Creating great experiences for students remains a priority in Warren Township. We have the opportunity to create summer experiences for our K-4 students.
Summer Enrichment Camps will be held for one week (5 days) for three hours a day (8:45 - 11:45). Camps would be held at Elementary Schools where classrooms/LGI spaces are available and students would have access to summer servings (free breakfast and lunch).
Teachers would be paid the stipend rate of $27 hour 25 hours (15 hours with students and 10 hours of planning time). We would also provide each camp an allocation of $500 for supplies. I do think it would be best that each camp is staffed with two teachers.
Transportation would not be provided for students. Students would be charged a $10 "activity" fee for the week.
The idea is to have multiple camps taking place in various locations over several weeks throughout the summer.
Camps should be STEAM related. This is where I'd love to see creative ideas!
Depending on the number of inquiries we may have to institute an application process.
Our PLC Journey...
We will achieve this outcome by learning together about the best practices proven to increase student learning, applying what we have learned, and using evidence of student learning to make decisions and revisions in practice to help even more students learn at higher levels.
Four Critical Questions
- What do we want our students to know and be able to do?
- How will we know when they have learned it?
- What will we do when they haven't learned it?
- What will we do to extend the learning when they already know it?
When we meet in our collaborative teams, we will focus on these four critical questions.
