From Mrs. J & her 3rd Grade Geniuses:
This picture was taken by Safety Officer & our Paige Panda Leader, Mr. Sylvain! He is a Hero to many of our 3rd Grade Geniuses because he takes them on Social Emotional Learning Strolls. In one of our morning meetings we had an accountable talk to discuss why these SEL strolls are so important. One student said, “Walking with Mr. Sylvain around the school helps me to appreciate everything about my school. Plus, I have fun with my friends!” Thank you to Mr. Sylvain for being a Paige Panda Leader, You ROCK! 🐼

Parents & Guardians, The Schenectady City School District Board of Education passed a new grading policy for all students. This policy was heavily influenced by national experts such as Joe Feldman, Tom Guskey, and input from district teachers and administrators. The video features our partnership with Joe Feldman the author of the book Grading for Equity. It also highlights two of our High School teachers (Kelly Egan and Oriana Miles) who were participants in the first cohort of teacher learners in grading. We will have access to the video until Tuesday, December 3rd. Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yviIoPJaZYFbgzEMVEVohvK6EOpzsAAk/view?usp=sharing
