Gradebooks as Mirrors of Mastery

At Venture, our gradebooks are not just record-keeping tools.

They are mirrors.

They reflect what we believe about learning, growth, and what it truly means to master something. When used thoughtfully, a gradebook tells a story—not just of performance, but of progress.

This belief is not new for us. For more than a decade, Venture staff have intentionally transformed traditional gradebooks into systems that more accurately reflect student learning. This work has been thoughtful, sustained, and deeply purposeful. It represents a collective commitment to mastery over points, growth over compliance, and truth over convenience—and it is something we are genuinely proud of.

This midpoint of the term is a good time to review your gradebook to ensure:

• Everything is calculating correctly

• Appropriate weight is given to each category (with a minimum of 80% assigned to assessments)

• And most importantly, that every grade entered is essential to determining whether students are mastering the concepts

In a mastery-based system, grades are not meant to be a running tally of compliance, effort, or behavior. They are meant to answer one central question:

What does this student know, understand, and still need to learn?

Because of that, there should be few—if any—grades in gradebooks that do not measure student mastery of the topic. If an assignment does not give you meaningful evidence of learning, it does not belong in the gradebook as a graded artifact.

What This Means in Practice

A mastery-aligned gradebook:

• Prioritizes evidence of learning over task completion

• Weighs assessments heavily because they represent demonstration of understanding

• Uses practice, drafts, and formative work as feedback tools, not grade drivers

• Allows space for revision and reassessment when learning is not yet secure

What to Look for as You Review

As you look at your gradebook, consider:

• Are most grades tied directly to standards or priority learning targets?

• Do assessment categories clearly outweigh practice or participation?

• Would you feel confident explaining how a student’s grade reflects their level of mastery?

If you have any questions about the mechanics of the gradebook, Lena is our technical specialist. If you have questions about how a gradebook reflects mastery of content, please see me or Mantz.

We will be scanning through gradebooks over the next week or so and welcome any questions or thoughts as part of this ongoing work together.

Rethinking anxiety is a topic I had hoped to explore with you all during collaboration time this year, but as so often happens, we haven’t quite had the space for it yet. Still, it’s been on my mind, and I wanted to put it out there as something to think about together.

Anxiety and stress show up in our classrooms every day — expressed in loud explosions and quiet withdrawal. It hums in the background of virtually every move we make at Venture. We usually carry an unspoken assumption about what stress and anxiety mean: that they’re signs of overload, or something that needs to be reduced, managed, or fixed as quickly as possible.

I’ve been thinking about a different question: not how do we reduce anxiety, but what story are we telling about it?

Jonathan Sacks writes, “Narrative is how we construct meaning out of the flow of events… We are, in large measure, the story we tell about ourselves, which means that we are always a work in progress.” That idea has stuck with me. If that’s true, then the meaning our students make of stress and anxiety may matter even more than the feelings themselves.

There’s actually research around this. Psychologists Crum, Salovey, and Achor developed something called the Stress Mindset Measure, which looks at whether people see stress as debilitating or enhancing. What’s interesting is that people can experience the same stressors but respond very differently depending on the story they tell themselves — whether stress means “this is harming me” or “this is challenging me in a way that could grow me.”

How does this relate to our work with students?

What are the stories they tell themselves about anxiety?
Does “feeling stressed” mean “I can’t handle this”?
Or could it sometimes mean “this matters” or “I’m stretching”?

And then a further question for us:
What would happen if we subtly changed our own narrative and began speaking differently about stress and anxiety? Could we, over time, model a relationship with these experiences that might actually help shift students’ experiences?

I don’t have answers here — just curiosity. But I keep coming back to the idea that maybe anxiety isn’t always a sign that something is wrong. Maybe sometimes it’s a sign that something is forming, emerging, or being attempted for the first time. 

And maybe part of our work, individually or collectively, is simply becoming more aware of our narratives around stress and anxiety — and considering whether our story is helping students grow, or whether it is contributing to a view that undermines them.

Not to fix anything.
Not to rush to solutions.
Just to notice the story… and hold open the possibility of a different one.

If you want to dig into this topic a little more, here's a place to begin: Stress Mindset Measure

IPLP - we will do a midterm check in tomorrow during our collaboration time.  Please bring a Chromebook. We will work with departments to answer the questions in the Evaluations link

Rest and Renewal Ahead

As we move into the final week of the term, I know many of us are feeling the weight of the season. It’s been a long stretch—full of effort, change, and the steady push to help students finish strong. Some days it feels like we’re carrying more than our share, and I just want to say: I see that.

Even when energy feels low, what matters most is still happening here. Students are showing up, teachers are showing care, and small steps forward are adding up. It might not always feel inspiring in the moment, but the quiet, consistent work you do each day is what keeps this place steady and meaningful.

As we head into Thanksgiving break, I hope you’ll notice and make space for micro moments of rest—a deep breath between classes, a walk outside, a few minutes of quiet before heading home. Renewal doesn’t always come from big breaks; sometimes it’s found in the small pauses that remind us we’re human.

Thank you for showing up with heart, even when it’s hard. This work matters, and so do you.

A Fresh Start

Each new term at Venture brings new faces, new energy, and new opportunities to build community. As we prepare for the next group of students, let's take the time to consider the intentional steps we will take to welcome them into our learning communities.

Creating belonging starts with small, deliberate actions: greeting students by name, providing opportunity for them to share a bit of themselves with one another, or setting routines that help everyone feel grounded and known. These gestures send a clear message—you matter here, and we’re in this together.

Prior to the new term, plan the steps to help your new group settle in and connect:

• Revisit and update class norms together—what still fits, what needs to change for this group?

• Use quick team challenges or problem-solving tasks that require collaboration and communication.

• Incorporate structured talk protocols like Think–Pair–Share, Four Corners, or Circle of Viewpoints so every voice is included.

• Do a short “get-to-know-you” reflection or partner interview, then share insights as a class.

• Model curiosity and care—take time to learn students’ names, interests, and goals for the term.

Each of these small moves helps transform a collection of students into a learning community—one that feels connected, purposeful, and ready for what’s next.

 “Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.” — Parker Palmer

Thank you, Josh!!!

Today is Custodian Appreciation Day—an excellent opportunity to thank Josh for all he does at Venture. Josh, your steady dependability and constant willingness to step in whenever something needs attention are deeply appreciated. You play a big part in making Venture a supportive place for students and staff alike. The way you involve students in your work helps them learn responsibility and take pride in their surroundings. Your quiet dedication keeps our school moving forward, and we are grateful for the care you bring to your role each day.

Spotlight on Thinking Strategies  

One of the staples of our Instructional Framework is Thinking Strategies—the tools we use to increase learner agency and deepen understanding. Over the past week, I’ve seen so many powerful examples of this in action across classrooms: thoughtful use of protocols, intentional wait time, and teachers responding to questions with more questions that stretch student thinking even further.

Here’s what I didn’t see very much of—and it’s worth celebrating: teachers asking a question and then immediately answering it themselves. Not long ago, that was almost the norm in schools everywhere. It’s something most of us grew up with, and many of us carried into our early teaching years.

So kudos and gratitude to each of you for resisting the urge to fill the silence. By leaning into that quiet moment, you’re giving students the chance to process, grapple, and problem-solve. That shift may feel small, but its impact on learning is enormous.

October 3 – Cross-District Collaboration

Location: Coeur d’Alene High School
Goal: Build an understanding of how our Instructional Framework meets the needs of every student and connects to our district strategic plan and HRS goals.

Friday we’ll be joining colleagues from across the district at Coeur d’Alene High School. It’s an early start, so grab some coffee on the way in and plan on breakfast when you arrive. The day is designed to give us time with Scott Murphy and with each other to think more deeply about how we’re using the Instructional Framework in our work.

As Parker Palmer reminds us, “Good teaching cannot be reduced to technique; good teaching comes from the identity and integrity of the teacher.” This day is not about new tricks or quick fixes—it’s about the deeper work of how our teaching identity and shared framework shape what happens for students.

What to Bring

• Phenomenal Teaching

• Notepad and pencil

Schedule at a Glance

• 7:00–8:00 AM – Doors open, continental breakfast, check-in, welcome loop presentation

• 8:00–9:20 AM – Welcome from Dr. Hocker; Workshop 1 with Scott Murphy on the Instructional Framework

• 9:20–9:30 AM – Break

• 9:30–10:10 AM – Workshop 2 with Scott Murphy: Collective efficacy and our work with the framework

• 10:10–11:00 AM – Breakouts by Instructional Framework Staples (facilitated by teacher leaders/admin)

• 11:00–11:30 AM – Breakouts by school building: “Now what?” conversations led by principals

• 11:30 AM – Dismissal

Notes

• Breakout room assignments by staple will be provided on site.

• Scott Murphy’s video explains the breakout protocol (link shared separately).

Thank you for the way you consistently bring your best to these collaboration days. As John Hattie puts it, “The biggest effects on student learning occur when teachers become learners of their own teaching.” That’s the spirit we’re bringing with us—learning together so that we can return to Venture better equipped for the students who need us most.

Let’s Talk Clutter

Clutter is something many of us wrestle with—kids and adults alike. For those who struggle with ADHD, trauma, or even just organization in general, clutter tends to build up quickly. The challenge is that clutter doesn’t just take up space; it creates a sense of chaos that makes it harder to focus and manage daily tasks.

That’s why it’s often recommended that classrooms remain as tidy as possible. A clean, orderly environment helps students focus on learning. This doesn’t mean your classroom should be bare—anchor charts, posters, and other purposeful visuals are powerful tools. But random stacks of materials or piles of “stuff” can easily shift from helpful to distracting.

I want to be clear: I don’t want the job of going room to room deciding what’s too cluttered (maybe Mantz would enjoy that task . That’s for each of us to determine. My ask is simple: take a look at your own space and make the call about what needs to stay and what needs to go.

A related thought—before bringing anything from home into your classroom, pause and ask yourself: Does this contribute to learning, or does it just contribute to clutter? At the end of the school year, or when your time at Venture comes to a close, please plan to take personal items home so our maintenance crew doesn’t end up with the job of disposing of them.

And finally, about the “giveaway” stack in the workroom—it’s been overflowing lately. Josh moved a table to the back hallway where you can place items for others to take. Please limit how long things stay there to about a week. If no one picks them up, the responsibility is yours to remove them—either take them home or throw them out. This helps us discourage clutter throughout the building.

Thanks for taking a few minutes to think about your spaces. A little effort from all of us goes a long way toward keeping Venture a calm, welcoming, and focused place for our students. A clutter-free environment not only lightens the load for us—it shows our students the pride we take in their learning space.

At this point, we do not yet have access to Homeroom Evaluations, so we will hold off on working on IPLPs. However, you are encouraged to continue talking within your departments about the goals you will set for this school year.

Thank you for the energy, thoughtfulness, and care you continue to bring to your work—it makes a real difference for our students and our community.

From Community to Discourse

Last week we looked at how routines, space, and relationships lay the groundwork for community. This week, let’s build on that idea by focusing on one of the most powerful outcomes of community: student discourse.

When students feel safe and connected, they are more willing to share ideas, listen deeply, and take intellectual risks. Discourse is where respect, belonging, and structure translate into learning. Wendy Ward Hoffer emphasizes, “When students are invited to do the thinking, they grow capacity and confidence.” Discourse is one of the key ways this happens—when students explain their reasoning, challenge one another, and build on peers’ ideas, they are constructing knowledge together.

When we design for discourse, we are doing more than shaping an academic routine—we are responding to a deeper human need. As Parker Palmer reminds us, “The human heart yearns for connectedness. We need connections to ourselves, to others, to the worlds of history and nature, to the circle of community, to the mystery of the universe.” Discourse in the classroom helps answer that yearning. It gives students a place to connect with ideas and with one another, transforming learning into something that is both intellectual and deeply human.

At Venture, we regularly use protocols—Chalk Talk, See–Think–Wonder, Save the Last Word—to amplify student voice, balance participation, and shift ownership of learning toward students. In October, we’ll have the chance to step back and reflect on how these moves connect directly to Domain 2 practices and the culture of learning we’re building together.

Between now and then, I encourage you to pause and notice:

• When students talk, are they mostly talking to you—or to each other?

• How might routines open space for more voices?

• Whose thinking is being highlighted, and how can it be expanded?

Just as routines create a culture of belonging, discourse creates a culture of shared thinking. Together, they transform classrooms into communities where every student has a voice—and every voice matters.

Reflective Question: As you look ahead to October, what is one way you might strengthen discourse so that students are talking to learn—not just talking to answer?

Week Two Reflections: Building Belonging at Venture

We’re only two weeks into the school year, and already the heart of Venture is shining through. Last week, I wrote about the power of showing up together to launch the year. This week, I want to celebrate what I’ve seen happening across our advisories and classrooms: the intentional work of building community.

In advisory, I’ve noticed students engaging in cooperative activities, laughing together, and having real opportunities to connect. These early steps—getting to know one another, sharing experiences, and building trust—are not “extra.” They are the foundation of a strong and supportive culture.

I’ve also seen something equally important: advisories working together across groups. When the two freshman advisories gather for a shared activity, or when sophomores, juniors, or seniors come together, students begin to form a class identity. This sense of “we belong together as the Class of 2029” (or 2027, or 2026…) helps kids feel anchored. They see themselves not just as individuals but as part of a team moving forward side by side. That kind of belonging is powerful—it builds pride, unity, and resilience.

As Parker Palmer reminds us, “We teach who we are. Teaching, like any truly human activity, emerges from one’s inwardness, for better or for worse.” The work you are doing to cultivate belonging in your advisories and classes flows directly from who you are as educators—your care, your integrity, and your belief in these students.

So as we close out week two, I want to thank you for investing in relationships. Each icebreaker, group activity, and advisory circle lays the groundwork for the thriving Venture community we’re building together. Strong relationships are not only the key to our culture—they’re the spark that will carry us through challenges and help our students see themselves as capable, connected learners.

Preparing for October: Classroom Environments That Build Belonging

This past week I’ve been struck by how intentionally you’re shaping the student experience. I’ve seen advisories and classrooms where students are laughing together, building trust, and making new connections. I’ve also seen classrooms where routines are beginning to take hold, giving students the structure they need to engage and belong. These efforts—both relational and practical—are laying the foundation for a culture where learning can thrive.

In October, we’ll take a deeper look at how these early moves connect to Domain 2 of the Danielson Framework: The Classroom Environment. This domain highlights five key components that influence how students experience school every day:

• Respect and rapport
• Culture for learning
• Procedures and routines
• Behavior expectations
• Use of space

These ideas are echoed in Phenomenal Teaching, particularly in the chapter on Community. Hoffer reminds us that “learning is a profoundly social act, best supported when we cultivate a community of thinkers.” Just as Domain 2 emphasizes the environment we create, Phenomenal Teaching underscores that belonging and shared responsibility are essential to meaningful learning.

The connections are clear:

• Respect and rapport grow out of the stance we bring into the classroom.
• Culture for learning develops through the workshop model and thinking strategies, where students see themselves as capable thinkers.
• Procedures and routines provide the structure that frees students to take intellectual risks.
• Use of space and behavior expectations shape a sense of safety, equity, and shared accountability.

When we meet in October, you’ll have the chance to:

• Experience protocols (Chalk Talk, See–Think–Wonder, Save the Last Word) from a student perspective.
• Analyze how these strategies support Domain 2 practices.
• Reflect on how routines, space, and teacher moves shape culture and belonging.
• Identify one specific move to carry forward in your classroom.

Between now and then, I encourage you to pause and notice:

• Which routines are helping students feel safe and engaged?
• Where do you already see equity of voice emerging?
• How does the arrangement of space support (or limit) collaboration?

At Venture, our best teaching emerges from the communities we intentionally build. The daily choices you make—in relationships, routines, and environment—are the foundation of that community.

Fire Drills and Lockdowns

Please take a few minutes this week to review fire drill expectations with your classes:

• Exit quickly and quietly through the assigned route.
• Stay together with your class and teacher.
• Remain silent so directions can be heard.
• If students are in the bathroom, hall, or another location separate from their class, they should leave by the nearest exit and rejoin their class outside.
• Once outside, take your class roster and emergency binder with you.
• After accounting for your students, hold up the green sign. If you are missing a student or unsure of their location, hold up the red sign so we know to assist.

Skylar will be scheduling an after-school meeting soon to review lockdown and modified lockdown procedures. Until then, thank you for preparing your students and ensuring everyone knows what’s expected.

The Power of Small Moves

As we settle into the rhythm of the new school year, it’s worth remembering that instructional excellence isn’t always about grand reinventions. Often, it’s the small, intentional moves we make that ripple out the furthest.

Wendy Ward Hoffer emphasizes in Phenomenal Teaching that when we design classrooms around thinking, discourse, and inquiry, we aren’t just teaching content — we’re equipping students to become curious, capable learners for life. Every time we ask a better question, press a student to explain their thinking, or pause to let them puzzle through an idea, we’re reinforcing habits that matter far beyond the walls of our classrooms.

The 1% Mindset

Dr. Hocker talks about the value of improving by just 1% in some area of our practice. Alone, a 1% change may feel too small to notice. But as those small improvements compound — day after day, week after week — the effect is transformative.

This week, I encourage you to notice your “1% moves”:

• Asking one more follow-up question when a student responds.

• Giving ten more seconds of wait time before calling on someone.

• Shifting a worksheet into a discussion prompt.

None of these alone will transform a lesson — but collectively, they create the culture of thinking and learning we want for Venture.

Moving Forward Together: “Collective teacher efficacy is the number one factor influencing student achievement.”— John Hattie

We don’t have to do it all at once. If each of us commits to just 1% more intentionality toward deeper learning and richer discourse, our collective impact grows exponentially. As John Hattie reminds us:

“Collective teacher efficacy is the collective belief of teachers in their ability to positively affect students. It is more than three times as powerful and predictive of student achievement than socioeconomic status, and it is the number one factor influencing student achievement.”

Thank you for the creativity, persistence, and heart you bring every day. The work isn’t easy, but the difference you make is immeasurable.

What’s one 1% move you’ll try this week?
