I hope you found time to read The Seven Habits of Highly Affective Teachers by Rick Wormele. We are heading into week two of focusing on Finding Joy in Others.
In addition to the suggestions listed below, please consider nominating a student or two for a positive referral. I will make sure they get a Warrior Ownit pin.
WHS Positive Referral
Finding Joy in Others (3/1 - 3/12) (Some examples/ideas)
Send a friend or colleague a positive note/textPD Schedule for Thursday, 3/11
Make a positive call/email home
Write a positive note to a student
Celebrate individual student success, in the classroom or on Meet call
Reach out to a student that has been struggling, not participating, change in behavior
Spend five minutes talking to someone about how they're doing (Give your time)
Bake for a friend
Positive words of encouragement
Dr. Elias will be posting the schedule either Monday or Tuesday.
All staff will have the option to work from home.
Schedule for 4/23 (PSAT 10) and 4/27 (SAT)
For planning purposes ... for each testing day we will run a full virtual day for all students not testing (AM and PM classes). The expectation is you will be teaching your classes synchronously like normal.
4/23 (Sprit B) - 2, 4, 6, 8 PM 3 & 7
4/27 (Pride B) - 2, 4, 6, 8 PM 1 & 5
I will post the draft proctoring schedule next week. I am only asking grade level teachers of the students who are testing and elective classes as necessary.
Referendum Update
The referendum is moving forward with an April 20th vote. Information is being shared via social media. For those not on social media, I will be adding all posts onto the WHS Principal's blog - Referendum Page. There is also a site created just for the referendum - Stronger Schools for Waldwick
