Think about the person you want to hire or work with? What skills do they already possess? What makes them stand out?
As a school, we are working to do more than address just the academic needs of students. We want to see them graduate possessing skills that will help them be successful in their future. We would love these skills to not only align with our portrait of a graduate but also the community and business that they are a part of. This is where CPAG comes in... we need your help!
Use the survey here, reach out to Rachel, or join our January small-group session to talk more about the skills that you want students to possess when they graduate.
EHS is thriving! Our students are engaged throughout the school and community with variety of activities. Look out for updates on major upcoming events.
New platform: Probada! Probada is our newest skill tracking tool. Students upload evdence and reflections, while teachers and community partners can provide feedback beyond test scores/grades. We discussed the potential uses for this platform and how it can enhance the community-school interactions!
EHS Skill Development. Much of our meeting was focused around examining EHS skills. Our goal is to ensure these are aligned with employers and what is most needed/valued. For information on what the current EHS skills are, see the skill cards here.
Skill Workshop. We are doing a deeper dive into the skills with a small group of partners in January 2026. If you are interested in being a part of this, reach out to Rachel.
Community of Practice. February will be an exciting month! We are hosting a regional Community of Practice to brinig local schools and partners together. More information to come!
Community partners worked alongside ECS staff and students to start looking at what skills stand out as must-haves and what we may be missing.
