The conversation revolved around planning activities during shutdown and SAT days for students.
Focus on ensuring productive use of time for both eleventh and twelfth graders during these days.
Shutdown Day Purpose:
Aim to provide productive activities for students who are not taking the SAT.
Importance of structured activities rather than leaving students with free time.
Students Involved:
Eleventh-grade students are expected to partake in SAT.
Twelfth-grade students generally do not have planned activities and may be released early.
SAT Participation:
Only eleventh graders are mandated to participate; it's opt-in for them.
No PSAT scheduled for this period; only algebra mock exam for eleventh graders.
Activity Ideas:
Need to categorize participating students for effective management.
Focus on different subgroupings (e.g., students who need help in math/English).
Data Management:
Utilize updated lists from Power BI to identify students needing attention.
Sort students based on criteria relevant to College and Career Readiness (CCR) and CCMR programs.
Assess which students have completed required tasks (English, math, essays).
Teacher Coordination:
Identify core teachers for math and English to facilitate student support.
Specific focus on grouping students by their needs and subject completions.
Scheduled Meeting:
A meeting is planned for 1:00 PM to discuss priorities and ensure everyone is on the same page.
The necessity to print information and share accordingly with APs and teachers.
Communication with Staff:
Need to have clear lines of communication for reporting on student prep and readiness.
Direct conversation with Becky regarding testing procedures (I Excel program).
Data Accuracy:
Emphasis on having accurate data from TCB for assessments and planning.
Acknowledgement that errors might exist but requires starting point for effective action.
The primary goal is to finalize the student list and scheduling method by the 1:00 PM meeting.
