News You Can Use
SG Spirit Wear: Visit our virtual school store for holiday shopping at https://www.customink.com/fundraising/st-georges-school-store-holiday-sale?utm_campaign=desktop-post-launch-v3&utm_content=st-georges-school-store-holiday-sale&utm_medium=social&utm_source=copy-link. Please understand that since we are transitioning the school store responsibilities to a new teacher advisor, we can’t guarantee your order will arrive before winter break.
SG Facemasks: Each student will receive a free green Hawks facemask. Facemask will be distributed to students in their career areas/learning pods next week (see the picture above).
Parents Praising Teachers: It has been a challenging year for everyone and sometimes all that keeps us going is a little positive reinforcement! Think about a time this school year when a teacher has had a positive impact on your child. The impact can be social/emotional or related to your child's coursework. Please take a moment to share a shout out that the SG administration can share with a teacher at https://forms.gle/nXWUrvaA8pVhPVuv6
Media Center Update: St. Georges is continually renovating its library space to incorporate features of an innovation center with increased flexibility, mobility, and technology to meet the needs of today's high school student. The vision is to have a learning space that enables students and teachers to organize learning spaces based on their learning objectives. For instance, our vision is to have a space that can host several different classes simultaneously and enable students to participate in the same learning activity or presentation using monitors throughout the space. Another example of innovation center use could involve a group of four students working on a project-based learning activity. Within the innovation center concept, they can reorganize a space to serve as a hub for bringing their vision to fruition. Flooring was provided in the summer of 2019 and our shipment of furniture arrived several weeks ago. Please see pics below.
Final Assessments: Students will have a voice and a choice related to their final assessment specifically how they will demonstrate their knowledge and skill. Individual teacher information will be shared with students leading up to the finals. Please take a look at the infographic below for an overview of the final structure that will be used this January.
