NO SCHOOL, MONDAY JANUARY 16, 2023
Principal's Message
Every day, students at CFT begin their learning with a morning meeting. In each classroom, students come together for 20 minutes to engage in social-emotional learning or SEL. In morning meeting, social emotional learning might include taking turns in conversations, listening and understanding our peers, and practicing empathy. Although morning meetings can look different in each class, most include opportunities to share our feelings or interests and get prepared for a day of learning together. Students use the skills they learn in morning meeting throughout the day to collaborate for learning, play together and solve problems independently and fairly.
I am proud of the social and emotional growth that our students make over the year and the ways in which morning meetings promote not only their social and emotional development, but their academic growth as well.

NO HAY CLASES - LUNES, 16 DE ENERO DEL 2023
Mensaje de la Directora
Todos los días, los estudiantes de CFT comienzan su aprendizaje con una reunión matutina. En cada salón de clases, los estudiantes se reúnen durante 20 minutos para participar en el aprendizaje socioemocional o SEL. En la reunión de la mañana, el aprendizaje socioemocional puede incluir turnarse en las conversaciones, escuchar y comprender a nuestros compañeros y practicar la empatía. Aunque las reuniones matutinas pueden verse diferentes en cada clase, la mayoría incluye oportunidades para compartir nuestros sentimientos o intereses y prepararnos para un día de aprendizaje juntos. Los estudiantes usan las habilidades que aprenden en las reuniones de la mañana durante todo el día para colaborar en el aprendizaje, jugar juntos y resolver problemas de manera independiente y justa.
Estoy orgulloso del crecimiento social y emocional que nuestros estudiantes logran durante el año y las formas en que las reuniones matutinas promueven no solo su desarrollo social y emocional, sino también su crecimiento académico.
