Whew! We made it through the first full week of school! Thank you to everyone for making our district a great place for our students. I have heard so many compliments about our staff and how smooth the start of this school year has been. I hope you can get some well-deserved rest this weekend.

We will have an Equity Committee this year. The committee will hold the first planning meeting in October and meet monthly through the rest of the year. Please let Joe know if you are interested in being a part of this committee. 

There will be an opportunity for a book study to support equitable teaching practices. More information about this opportunity will be provided soon.

 

Notes From Tina

https://www.colorincolorado.org/ell-newcomer-resources

Lots of resources for teaching your Newcomer English Learners--Colorin Colorado is a fantastic website!

I'm making a plug for Background Knowledge. Your English Learners may not have the background knowledge to access a concept or information in your lesson. They may have NO background knowledge; they may have a DIFFERENT understanding; they may have a completely WRONG idea of the concept or information. DO check for understanding, and, when necessary, PROVIDE background information!

      WELCOME BACK! I hope you have all had a wonderful summer! As we gear up for a new school year, I wanted to let you know of some exciting developments.  FBUSD has received a 5 year Community Schools grant to support connections of community support to our students. The grant will be coordinated by Martha Lopez serving in the newly created role of Community Schools Coordinator. The grant will provide funding for Family Liaisons, upgrades at the JD Center, Mindfulness through Martial Arts, access to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library for families with children 0-5 years old, and access for our students to Psychiatric services. These services are not up and running yet, but we will be adding them throughout the year.  Our Custodial and Maintenance teams have been busy this summer. I really appreciate all that they do to ensure our sites are clean and safe for students and staff. Please join me in thanking them for their hard work!  Construction projects...
