The Library Media Specilalist team is interested in creating a series of “adulting” tasks, linked to the VBCPS graduate profile, that could be embedded in core courses throughout grades 9-12. The team would offer to write lessons for teachers or suggest topics for teachers to “adopt”. They would like to have a plan in place for a soft launch in the fall.

The team is starting with a survey they would like to administer, at minimum, to the staff, but they are interested in extending the survey to parents and community members who would like to weigh in on what “adulting” skills kids may need before graduation. They are also interested in hosting a book study based on a book of 300 or so skills kids need before they are 18.

Mr. Gio has a variety of ideas for his construction and engineering classes and has a unique viewpoint on technical education in general. His students were in the midst of building their own greenhouse and were participating in a competition with ODU to design a park in an abandoned raised rail track. His course is very hands-on and he is very interested in linking the concepts to sustainability. The greenhouse the students are designing was intended to be used as a laboratory of cultivation experiments, including using robotics to assist with agriculture. He signed up for the innovation squad because he did not know the abundance of division resources available on the topic.

He is connected now to Tim Cole and Tony Arnold, but his class is on hold for now. The green house cannot be built as planned and the plants the students were “engineering” are living at his home. He does not teach the same courses next year (the courses are on a two year rotation) so many of his long term plans are no longer viable with the lack of experience the students will have and the changing curriculum of the next courses. Tim Cole did connect him with some folks from USGBC (Green Building Council) who offer an entirely online LEED certification and he is working with Charlie Hurd to get that going, at least at Green Run, but possibly other high schools as well.
