Alice Carlson ALC: Growing Lifelong Learners
Message from the Principal
Dear Families,
On behalf of the staff at Alice Carlson Applied Learning Center, I want to welcome you to the 2021-2022 school year. Again, we find ourselves in unpredictable times as we enter the new school year. However, let us remember the obstacles that we overcame as a community last year. Carlson staff and families came together in a tight partnership to continue the learning of all students. We have proven that we are a community of learners that look for the problems and find the solutions together.
Our staff is eager for our students to return to campus. We engaged in a three-day Applied Learning Institute this summer, lead by teacher leaders from all four Applied Learning campuses, to center the work that we do this fall and beyond. Our core beliefs as a staff are to:
Foster a sense of community and lifelong learning
Teach an understanding of accountability and each person’s role in that concept
Encourage and facilitate collaboration
Provide avenues for students to find their voice
Create an environment that promotes problem identification, inquiry, and problem solving
Our campus theme this year will be Alice Carlson ALC: Growing Lifelong Learners. I am honored to be serving this community as the lead learner and cannot wait to welcome our new and returning students to campus on August 16th.
Warmest Regards,
Liz Kelz
