PBIS CALL TO ACTION
● As we
move forward in the Spring term, remember the protocol for letting HSFI staff
know about at-risk students:
#1 - At-Risk Referral
form
#2 - If the issues
persist within a given marking period, fill out a Guidance Referral
#3 - Start fresh at
the beginning of the 2nd Marking Period – go back to the At-Risk
Referral form
PLEASE
REMEMBER THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY TUTORING REFERRALS
● Remember to go over your Grading Policy with your students – if you need
help in navigating the Jupiter Grades system including filling out the referral
forms and cumulative grading – let your department supervisor know and they
will go over it with you
● The first marking period is
EXTREMELY short due to Parent-Teacher Conferences – make
sure you get some assessments in, so you can give some feedback to your students
and their families. Start reaching out
to parents of at-risk students.
● Dates
of Parent-Teacher Conferences:
Night Conferences
from 5:30 pm – 8 pm: Thursday, March 10
Afternoon Conferences
from 1 pm – 3 pm: Friday, March 11

● Special SAT / PSAT Administration – Wednesday, March 2
Remember that next Wednesday is the
special administration of the PSAT & SAT where our 10th and 11th
graders will take these exams for FREE in our building on this day. Regular classes will not be meeting on this
day.
● 2016-17 Planning
I am following up on
my presentation to begin the Spring term when I identified the areas of growth
for the High School of Fashion Industries and the need to begin planning for
the 2016-17 school year so that we are unified as a school. The preparation is well under way with our
Technology Vision team and 13 staff members signed up for the 'Writing
Revolution' PD that will take place in March.
Below is a Google
survey for you to sign up for the planning teams for the remaining topics (only
if you wish to):
(1) Development of
the Social-Emotional Skills of HSFI Students - this includes Professionalism /
Growth Mindset and possibly the creation of a Service Learning requirement
(2) ICT Teacher
Team development - establishing best practices and resources for these teacher
teams
(3) Development
of Organizational Skills of HSFI Students – this includes Time Management /
Note-taking / Binder organization
● Parking Permit Procedures
Effective
February 22, 2016, parking placards will no longer be provided on a self-serve
basis. Staff members will need to request a pass directly from Ms.
Herzog. Ms. Herzog has been instructed to provide the pass once a staff
member has PRINTED their name in appropriate space. Since Ms.
Herzog is handling many issues in the morning, we thank you for your patience
in advance.
As per the
agreement with the UFT, parking placards will continue to be issued
on a first-come, first-served basis. If parking spaces are available, a staff
member should park and retrieve a numbered placard from room 119.
At the end of
each day, the staff member should return their parking permit to the special
locked mailbox that has been mounted directly under the large bronze High
School for Needle Trades plaque near the security desk in the lobby. It
has been designated specifically for this purpose, and houses a single slot so
permits can be secured as they are returned.
In fairness to
all, those individuals who do not return their permit on a daily basis will
forfeit parking privileges. All parking permits should be returned no later
than 6 pm the same day they were issued.
Questions or
concerns about this should be directed to Mr. Raschilla in room 143.

VTODs
FOR THE WEEK
Monday, February 22
Allude (v) 1. To hint at; mention in an
indirect way: My aunt had a way of
alluding to her former business partner, John, without ever mentioning his
name. 2. To mention without discussing at length. Our professor alluded to a
fascinating new technology which he promised to explain fully in future
classes.
Tuesday, February 23
Elude (v) 1. To avoid or escape by
being quick, skillful, or clever. “The Cardinal’s running back eluded five
tacklers for a 44 yard gain.” 2. To fail to be understood or remembered. The
name of the author eludes me for the moment. The cause of the disease continues
to elude researchers.
Wednesday, February 24
Ambiguous (adj.) having more than one possible meaning; “Define the goal as clearly as possible,
leaving out any ambiguous language. The playwright smartly leaves us guessing
as to the character’s true motives, all the way to the ambiguous ending. (The
Latin roots: Ambi means both, and agere
means to lead; so, something ambiguous can lead us in two directions.)
Thursday, February 25
Ambivalent
(adj.) having
contradictory feelings or attitudes. He felt ambivalent about his job and
didn’t know whether to stay or leave.” Many residents seem ambivalent about the
barricade; they don't really like that it's there, but they are afraid to have
it removed.”
Friday, February 26
Corollary (n) A direct or natural
consequence or result: A corollary of
the deep cuts in expenditures was the huge increase in unemployment. “Ingrained
In the culture of tech start-ups is the belief that there is no shame attached
to failure because it’s seen as the necessary corollary of risk-taking.”
