Dear Mitchell School Improvement Team,
Thank you for all of the questions, input and questions today at our first meeting of the year! I am excited about the energy and possibilities we have in front of us.
My recap of today's meeting shows below. It may be that I missed something. If this is the case, your reminder/input can be received using the link below :-).
We left the meeting with the direction of giving input about possible focus areas for SIT (including several ideas that came up at the first meeting):
- Details about Education Yes! to better understand the tool and possible areas of focus.
- Grammar and the teaching of Standard English
- Understanding the current data of the school
- Understanding the way teaching and learning is approached at Mitchell (and how the IB Primary Years Programme will change that)
- Developing the use of the Mitchell-Scarlett Community Center in connection family needs
We also talked about having time at SIT meetings to report out and/or share ideas.
We surfaced a possible idea of having subcommittees form to work on a specific issue. Relative to subcommittee, having the SIT work with PTO representatives to looking at pick up and drop off procedures was brought up. Given the input from SIT and PTO parents at this time, we will form a subcommittee to look at this and give input. If you are interested, please let Kevin or Mrs. Liddell know....or put it in the Google Doc link below.
I'd like your input and thoughts. Would you please CLICK HERE to share?
Kevin and Matt will use this input to shape and propose our next SIT agenda and the direction for the year.
Thank you.
Kevin
