Wednesday, April 27 is Administrative Professionals Day.  Caryn, thank you for being the knowledgeable and cheerful face that greets students, families, and staff each time they enter the front door.  You know 'all the things' and you manage our questions, concerns, and utter confusion confidently and competently.  Your hard work and caring attitude makes everything here run a little more smoothly.  Thank you for making Venture a fun and supportive place to work and learn! 

Monday, April 25 is a certified work day.  We will be reviewing the essential standards that we developed this fall and making some adjustments based on our experiences this year.  Please bring your essential standards on Monday morning. We will begin at 8:00

Venture Learning Goals Check in... We began this school year with some goals to improve student learning.  How are these goals going in your classroom?

• Learning Targets that use the language of the teaching framework are posted and used.
• Students are using thinking routines and other strategies to actively process and build on their background knowledge
• Students are using discourse to learn and communicate to solve problems
• Discussion protocols are used to ensure every voice is heard.
