Celebrating Moments That Matter
Celebrating Moments That Matter
To continue fostering gratitude and connection within our team, we would like to invite you to a small Thanksgiving appreciation moment during our half day. Please join us in the Middle School office for a quick snack and a shared moment of thanks.
On Monday, we will send you the name of a colleague so you can prepare a brief appreciation note for them, highlighting what makes you thankful to have them as part of our team. Please bring this note with you on Thursday.
We also want to extend a warm congratulations to Karen Preckler, Santiago Villalba, Esteban Barrera, and Adrián Heredia for the amazing Songwriting concert. It was a wonderful showcase of student talent and a celebration of the incredible work happening in the music department.
We look forward to celebrating together on Thursday when students leave.
Need-to-Know Information
Community Time (CT) Plans
Here is the link to this week’s Community Time (CT) Lesson Plan.
Middle School will write a letter to Early Years and Elementary School (Kinder, 3rd, and 4th grade) students in which they will share messages of kindness, encouragement, and hope that inspire younger children to believe in themselves and in a brighter future.
Here is the list of students; however, it is important to note that some students have not been assigned to anyone because of number disparities. Those students should write a general letter, and the list can be managed internally.
To make this activity even more meaningful, we would like to encourage our students to also express what they are thankful for. Please guide them to end their cards with a brief appreciation message highlighting something they feel grateful for.
Monday, November 24th - 3pm
Please remember:
The agenda is a live document that we will continue to update.
It is important to maintain confidentiality and be objective in all notes.
You will only have access to the agenda of the grade level you belong to.
On this link, you will find the protocol that explains how these meetings will work, available in both English and Spanish. If you couldn’t join us last week, please make sure to review it so that you are prepared to participate in the meetings and have the information you need to include student updates.
