Happy Catholic Schools Week!
This is going to be a busy and exciting week. Thank you to everyone who worked on the activities and those who helped at the Masses this weekend. The students all did a great job reading their essays. Be sure to keep up with the schedule of activities and take pictures of everything you do. Share pictures with Gina and Kathleen.
This week I would like you to focus on how your lessons relate to the real world. Help students make connections to their everyday life.
On Friday we will have a half day meeting and professional development. In order to prepare for the meeting, I would like you to reflect on the Merit System - its successes and maybe its shortcomings. Take some time to look through the student handbook. Is there something that should be updated? changed? We will review assessment and the philosophy behind standards based grading. There will also be time to work on the next lesson in Google for Educators and Charles will demonstrate once again how to attach documents in Atlas - for some this is still a challenge. Please come prepared to reflect on the year and ideas about how to make next year better. Gina and I will also share our excitement for creating a MakerSpace!
Mark may be joining us on Friday for our Walkathon. Keep smiling and enjoy this time to celebrate our vocation to Catholic education.
