WE LEARN. WE LEAD. WE SUCCEED
Announcements
Information
- During LEAD Monday, we would like 8th grade teachers to talk with their students about what they would like to see offered during ACTION class. Remember that the purpose of LEAD is to fill a need that we have in either the building or community and leaderize them (having students lead in those things). Here is a good example: we have assemblies and they would like students to lead/create for the student body. Here is a non-example: I want to learn how to play basketball or I want to learn about dentistry. Although these are passions, they are not filling need for the building/community. Here is a document for you to use during your LEAD class to write down ideas that your student share out. PLEASE make this a priority on Monday so we can use this information during the faculty meeting after school.
- ACTION teachers we will have a brief time during faculty meeting for Action Teams to meet. During this time, we would like for you to share with your Action Team Facilitators what you plan on offering for ACTION class. If you don't know, you can use the list generated by students during LEAD to help make your decision. Final decision must be made by Wednesday, August 30th. Please write your ACTION class in this document along with a description.
