Celebrations
School Land Trust Plan for this year is finished, Joel is
very happy to have it completed.
Reflections entries were submitted last week. We had good participation.
The teacher teams are doing well, each team seems to
collaborate effectively.
Area of Concern: ELL
population has grown significantly since last year so we are working to see how
we can best meet their needs.
Review of Fall SCC
Training information
Watched videos, which outlined the history and purpose of
School Trust Lands as well as what role the School Community Council plays in
school improvement and academic growth.
School’s Digital
Citizenship and students safety plan
Discussed district and school wide online safety plan. Joel will send this information out to
community members.
Guiding principles: Today’s students are far more
technologically advanced than students in previous generations. As educators, it is essential that we
identify best practices, instructional methodologies and tools to engage
students through the use of interactive technologies.
Calendaring
Would like to hold meetings on the 3rd Thursday of every
month. Next month’s meeting will be held
November 19th.
In place of one of the monthly meetings, Joel would like to
possibly have SCC members come observe teacher collaborations as a “fly on the
wall” to see what goes on during that collaborative time..
Questions
Chrissy brought up her concern with students not having
mastered the basic math facts. Suggested
that Joel consider having a “Math fact of the Day” that he would announce
during morning announcements. It would
be a focus for the whole day. Every time
a student sees Joel in the hall they could tell him the fact, each class could
shout the fact loud enough for Joel to hear down in the office, etc.
