Apparently, Covid isn't quite over.
I have nothing to say, but "Thank you". Adults are sick. Kids are sick. CDC rules change. Community expectations are all over the map. And yet, despite these challenges, each of you continues to show up in caring ways to support students so they can learn through all of these difficulties. As I walk around Venture, I see clear evidence of elements of the Teaching Framework in classrooms. Students are using thinking routines and other strategies to build background knowledge and process new learning. Kids are creating projects to show their thinking and understanding of content. Discussion protocols are used to ensure every voice is heard. Thank you for capitalizing on every minute that we have with every student. Every day that a student is in the classroom is an opportunity to extend learning. Thank you for not letting those valuable learning moments slip away.
Remote Learning Possibility
There is a possibility that the district will move high schools to remote learning. Although I would like for us to stay in person, we would not be able to because of the transportation issues. For this reason, we will meet as a staff at 8:00 on Monday January 24th, but all other meetings are cancelled so you can prepare for the possibility of remote teaching.
