Staff Shout Out:
I want to thank the Math Department for their generosity with their classroom and time with our Math Integrity Walks. Anytime strangers come into the classroom with clipboards and iPads, it can be an intimidating experience. It was very productive and we learned a lot, and that is directly related to your hard work! Thank you all!
Also, thank you to Joey Balleweg! Joey is being reflective, introspective and also working diligently to create the best possible experience for his students. After school he rushes down to the tennis courts and is helping coach our Girls Tennis team that has over 50 student-athletes! This is a ton of work for a first year teacher and we have been so impressed! Thanks Joey!

Staff Shout Out:
Big Shout Out to Minnie Elliott, Tony Hazdovac, and Laura Pena, who continue to be advocates for all kids. They see and hear some of the worst of our students' lives, and they are always there to listen and be present. Our Mental Health Team carry a lot of difficulty on their shoulders and it is hard to shut that off at the end of the day. We recognize your hard work and the weight you carry!
Students - I wanted to share who were selected as Principal's Recognition students for this year's Senior Class. Brooklyn Choates, Sebastian Sloan, Jeremiah McLemore and Giada Nuovo will be recognized at the May 13th Board Meeting and at Graduation for their growth, maturation, persistence, perseverance and contributions to Monterey High School.

Open House - Incredible, incredible job folks. It was a fun night, and even though it was a little lighter than in the past with so many activities (Theater, Track Meet, Baseball Game, etc.), it was still a great night for our incoming 8th graders and greater community to see what the Monterey High Green Machine is all about. Thank you all for your dedication and commitment to our kids and the school! Go Dores!
Student Shout Out Personal Project - Student Alicia Rodgers created a podcast to preserve her grandparents stories and explore what their life was like in Columbia decades ago. Alicia records the entire podcast in Spanish with interviews from her grandparents. Click here to listen. This is an example of the amazing work that our students can do through the personal project"

In her "Romeo and Juliet" unit, students are re-enacting scenes and creating modern dialogue in an effort to bring modern contexts to the play. It is very fun to watch!
Also, Jessica Powell and the student athletic trainers are doing a great job with our athletic teams in keeping them taped, prepared and being available for any needs that arise! This is such a blessing to our teams and is a reliable anchor of safety that eases the anxiety of possible injury. Thank you all!

Staff Shout Out:
We were able to capture some really great action in classes yesterday with teachers practicing some of the strategies and curricular focuses from Monday. Ron Woods was conducting a collaborative poster activity as an into activity introducing the new unit of study, and building Statements of Inquiry (SOI) in creative ways! Marianne Hartfelt was using and exhibiting an MYP rubric for her students who were working on collages as an introductory activity for the new semester. This gave students an opportunity to move around the room, learn more about their peers and build the culture of the classroom for the new term. Great job everyone!
We will be trying to highlight multiple teachers from different departments every week in response to the feedback we received in the Youth Truth activity from Monday. We hope to be in more classrooms to take photos and witness the great things happening around campus.

We want to give a HUGE shout out to Nikki for all her work with the IB over the years and in planning for the evaluation. It was a big lift to get everything ready to present, especially virtually, and she knocked it out of the park!
Additionally, thank you to all staff for being flexible during our visit. Your hard work the past year and a half (and past 6 years as an IB school) has really paid off and shined in our visit. Great job to all!

We are far from perfect, but I am consistently overjoyed by how far we have come, and that is squarely on the shoulders of the adults on campus.

Staff Shout Out:
Shout-out for a fantastic Open House!! Leadership and Mr. Piña did a tremendous job with the carnival games and food. Students had a lot of fun! Thank you to all teachers who managed department tables, advised club tables and supported team tables. Nights like these often have us pulled in many directions with all the hats we wear but we came together last night and put on a beautiful showcase for our incoming students. Thank you to everyone for supporting a speedy clean-up as well so testing could resume as normal.

Thank you to Mr. Platt and Mr. Santora for taking care of tickets for Girls and Boys Basketball all season long.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication to our students gentlemen!

I want to give a collective thank you to our Community Liaisons Jorge Favela and David Correia for the hard work they do, day in and day out, to keep kids on track and to give them wise counsel. They do some of the most difficult work on campus and it can sometimes not get the attention it deserves, therefore I felt it fitting to recognize them. We are definitely stronger and students are assuredly more successful due to your efforts! Thank you Jorge and David!

Great first week! I appreciate the manner in which we approached the all day PD together and way we came together to have honest conversations with one another about our teaching, our students and our time, therefore to start the semester I wanted to shout out the entire team. Making this place the sanctuary for kids we all hope it to be starts with our staff. If we want to see what the student culture is, all we have to do is watch the adult culture, and I am incredibly encouraged because of the way our adults are committed to our students. Thank you for all you do and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Thank you to Mr. Wright for continuing to push our ERWC students' thinking! I recently held a student panel for my FLEX and I asked what students' favorite classes were, and one young lady enthusiastically said her ERWC 11th grade class with Mr. Wright. She explained it is her favorite because of the way he makes the content very interesting and fun. That is a tough subject to make come alive, so I wanted to shout out Mr. Wright for making material relevant and meaningful! Thanks for the hard work you do for students!
One more week until our Fall Break! It is imperative we find ways to keep students engaged and focused to the best of our ability. We will only have two weeks before finals upon our return so if there is work students could be getting caught up on during break please be sure to get that to them.
