MESSAGE FROM MR. BAUER
Students finished up their jump rope endurance challenge this past week and I was very excited to see how much students have grown in their rope jumping ability. We talked about challenging one selves and how mistakes are how we learn to grow, along with giving our best efforts.
In the weeks leading up to our Spring Break, all classes will be working in our Strategy and Responsible Behaviors (sportsmanship) Units. We will be playing floor hockey as our activity. Discussions about strategy will include using our teammates, passing, and moving to open space. With responsible behaviors we will discuss winning and losing, how to encourage our teammates along with giving “shout outs” at the end of class.

PROFILE OF A GRADUATE SESSION ON TUES 3/21
As we shared in our District Newsletter a few weeks ago, The Franklin Public Schools Profile of a Graduate work represents our commitment to the development and growth of each student in the college, career, and life-ready skills they will need to be successful. The Profile of a Graduate provides transparency to all community stakeholders regarding the skills they can expect to see from every Franklin Public School graduate and promotes collective ownership of each student’s success. Finally, the profile will be used to drive change within our district through the alignment of beliefs, programming, and experiences that help students grow in these skills and dispositions.
Gathering input from our stakeholders is underway as part of our Profile of a Graduate district work including:
Spring 2022: Family survey feedback, team meetings to develop plan
January 2023: Survey feedback from grade 6-12 students, overview meetings with staff at each school building, small group meetings with high school students.
February 2023: Key Communicators Meeting : Share with about 50 internal and external stakeholders.
If you would like to get involved, we are holding an additional Profile of a Graduate parent/guardian stakeholder meeting this Tuesday, March 21, 2023 from 4:30-5:30pm at the ECC District Office.Please contact Jessica Moe if you have any questions or would like to participate.
