Please click HERE for a link to a shared document that will track each of the required steps that need to take place PRIOR to a child receiving a failing grade on a report card. It is simple to use. Add a child's name to the form and an X to the boxes that are complete. You can also add any comments or notes that would be helpful for admin to know. Most importantly, we will use this information to make sure we are doing everything possible to support our students. Students should be held accountable for their own learning, but it also is up to us to maintain the belief that every child can succeed. Passively allowing a student to fail is not an option.
Instructional Resource of the Week
What is CivicEd?
The principal goals of the Center's programs are to help students develop (1) an increased understanding of the institutions of constitutional democracy and the fundamental principles and values upon which they are founded, (2) the skills necessary to participate as competent and responsible citizens, and (3) the willingness to use democratic procedures for making decisions and managing conflict. Ultimately, the Center strives to develop an enlightened citizenry by working to increase understanding of the principles, values, institutions, and history of constitutional democracy among teachers, students, and the general public.
The Center’s Civitas International Programs provide leaders in civic education opportunities to learn from and assist each other in improving education for democracy in their nations. The programs address the full range of civic education activities, from the development of educational policy, standards, curricular frameworks, and materials to teacher education, classroom implementation, and research and evaluation.
