SUCCESSFUL
SUPERINTENDENT’S VISIT BEFORE THE BREAK
It seems a long time ago, but I wanted to let the entire HSFI
community know the visit by Superintendent Orlen went well. Thank you to Ms. Viscuso, Ms. Smith, Ms. Vega
and Ms. Stambouly for representing the school so strongly during her classroom
visits. Superintendent Orlen recognizes
HSFI as a vibrant, nurturing community – she plans to attend many of our CTE
showcases as the school year winds down.
She wants us to work on ratcheting up the rigor in the classroom and
continually challenge our students in the tasks they are assigned and the
questions asked of them.
Thank you to everyone for being ready for the visit – the
Superintendent appreciated our efforts as she should.
HSFI PRESENTING AT HARVARD UNIVERSITY THIS WEEK
It is not everyday that
HSFI presents at Harvard University – I, along with a group of staff and
students, will be presenting at the ‘Beyond Desegregation’ conference at
Harvard on April 30, May 1, May 2 and May 3.
We will share our experiences participating in the instructional rounds;
our attempt to create a vision of race and equity; our efforts to identify the
gap between our vision and reality based off those classroom observations
during the rounds and the results of the race/equity survey we had students
complete; the struggles of getting students to take leadership roles in the
planning and execution stages of this work; and finally our struggles in
getting to the action phase of this work.
We have certainly not solved these
issues, but we are headed in the right direction by trying to address
them. Thank you to all of you for the
support of these efforts and feedback to improve the quality of our work.
We should all be very proud that we are leading these efforts in the largest school
district in the country!
HSFI HAVING A QUALITY REVIEW ON MAY 16 & 17
We are scheduled for a
NYC DOE Quality Review on May 16 & 17.
Just like a Superintendent’s visit, we need to put our best foot
forward.
Here is a summary of
what a Quality Review is from the DOE website:
The New York City
Department of Education’s (NYCDOE) Quality Review (QR) is a process that
evaluates how well schools are organized to support student learning and
teacher practice. The quality of school practices are rated based on criteria
outlined in the 10 Quality Indicators of the Quality Review Rubric.
During the two-day
school visit, the reviewer visits classrooms, meets with school leaders,
teachers, students, and parents, observes a teacher team meeting, and reviews
school documents. Over the course of the school visit, the reviewer gathers
evidence that will be used to determine the school’s ratings on the 10 Quality
Indicators. Schools present existing documents to contextualize the assessment
of all Quality Indicators. With the exception of the School Self-Evaluation
(SSEF), submitted prior to the school visit, principals and other members of
the school community are not expected to create documents as evidence for the
sole purpose of the Quality Review. At the end of the school visit, principals
receive preliminary ratings and verbal feedback on 10 Quality Indicators,
including an Area of Celebration (AoC) and an Area of Focus (AoF).
The QR process
culminates with the Quality Review Report which reflects a rubric-based
assessment of experiences and evidence gathered during the school visit. In
addition to the 10 indicator ratings, a school’s QR Report will include
narrative feedback on six of the 10 indicators. The report will be sent to the
principal approximately eight weeks following the school visit and will be
published on the school’s website.
The 2018-2019 Quality
Review Rubric has 10 indicators within three quality categories. The full rubric can be found at this link:

1.2

2.2 Assessment

CALL
TO ACTION
● MAKE PLANS TO ATTEND OUR STUDENT SHOWCASES THIS WEEK – INTERNATIONAL
CENTER OF PHOTOGRAPHY & SENIOR ART SHOW OPENINGS
This is an exciting time at HSFI
with all the student showcases with our majors – this week on Wednesday, May 1
we have the International Center of Photography Exhibit Opening in Room 821 at 4:00
pm and then on Friday, May 3 we have the Senior Art Show Opening in the Auditorium
at 4:00 pm. It would mean a lot to your
students and your colleagues if you came by even for a couple of minutes to
show your support of them.
● KEEP GIVING OUT THOSE FASHION DOLLARS
The FLY brand has never been
stronger so keep those Fashion Dollars flowing!
The increased number of staff giving out Fashion Dollars is noted and
much appreciated. Please keep it up –
Positive Reinforcement works!
● DO YOUR PART IN KEEPING THE HALLWAYS CLEAR
HSFI Assistant Principals and Peace
Teachers (formerly known as Deans) are conducting Hallway Sweeps that will
cover every square foot of this building to maintain school climate. The
sweeps will take place Periods 2 through 9. These sweeps are in addition
to the patrols that our security agents execute daily. Here is what you
can do to do your part in maintaining school climate:
□ Please go out into the hallway to welcome students into your
classroom in between classes
□ Once the music ends, close your door – do not lock the door -
and begin class promptly. For classes early in the day, please have tasks
/ assignments in place immediately when the music ends to promote students
being on time as part of the Readiness portion of their grades
□ Have a protocol for monitoring student
lateness (ex- Late Book)
□ A Pass is needed to go anywhere outside
of your classroom / specific Falcon Health Center pass
□ No passes first 10 minutes of class
(unless emergency)
□ No passes last 10 minutes of class
(unless emergency)
YOU CANNOT ALLOW A
STUDENT TO STAY IN YOUR CLASSROOM / OFFICE WHEN YOU ARE NOT THERE – ASK THEM TO
LEAVE & COME BACK
Please make sure these actions are
followed to do your part in maintaining school climate while our Assistant
Principals and Peace Teachers sweep the halls and do their part.
SUMMER
SCHOOL OPPORTUNITIES
The summer school online
application is now available – please click on the below link to apply.
If you apply, please let me and
your supervisor know, so we can look out for your application.
May 14 is the deadline to
apply. Applications submitted later than
this date do not have a good chance at being hired – all staff citywide need to
be hired before a late applicant is.
Our summer school will not be at
Fashion due to the upcoming construction – we will be at Park West High School
(West 50th Street between 10th & 11th
Avenues)
We will be doing something
different this year with no classes on Fridays – classes will only be Monday
through Thursday. The school day will go
from 8:00 am – 2:30 pm to make up for the lost instructional time on Fridays.
We will be doing our summer school
with Business of Sports School and possibly 2-3 smaller schools – the Business
of Sports School has been working us for the past couple of summer and we trust
them to be a responsible partner to make sure this program goes smoothly.
Summer School will run from Monday,
July 1 to Thursday, August 15. Regents
exams are on Tuesday, August 13 (Regents), Wednesday, August 15 (Regents) and
Thursday, August 16 (Regents Scoring).
Thursday, July 4 (Independence Day)
and Monday, August 12 (Eid al-Adha) are holidays.
As usual, we will be sending out a
Google form to identify staff interested in separate Regents tutoring,
Substitute teaching and/or Regents proctoring / grading.

need to know how much students are participating in activities around the
building – this includes:
TUTORING / CLUBS & ACTIVITIES / PSAL SPORTS – PRACTICES &
GAMES / ESL ACADEMY / MAKE-UP LABS / NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY PEER TUTORING /
USING THE COMPUTER LABS
Use this link to keep track of student attendance in these
activities - https://sites.google.com/a/hsfi.us/hsfi-staff-portal/attendance-for-student-activities
Doing this is mandatory if you oversee these
activities and needs to be done every time you meet with students. You
must be signed in to your own hsfi.us account when you do this. Contact
Shannon Kohm with questions at skohm@school.nyc.gov, or ext. 5311
Communication
Please make sure that you communicate with
our students about anything going on in the school – a club meeting, sports
game or program opportunity – you can do this by including it in our Daily
Announcements email / Jupiter message – here is the procedure for submitting
this information:
(1) Go to the HSFI Staff Home page - https://sites.google.com/a/hsfi.us/hsfi-staff-portal/home?pli=1
(2) From there use the Announcement
form link on the left hand side of the page - all announcements should be
requested by 3:00 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONAL REMINDERS
● OUR INSTRUCTIONAL FOCUS FOR 2018-19 & BEYOND
□ Every student feels
cared for
□ Every student feels
challenged
● HSFI STUDENT DASHBOARD UPDATES FROM MR. STAMPONE
Some
more updates have been rolled out the HSFI Student Dashboard
including a tweaked design change and some additional features
Remember
that the dashboard is only accessible on the school network. It is hosted
internally for data security reasons.
□ Find
your particular students by visiting http://hsfiintranet/studentdash/teachers/
and finding your name. Note: Co-teacher pairs appear separately.
□ When
you click into your page (for example, http://hsfiintranet/studentdash/teachers/stamponed.html),
you'll find a table at the top that subdivides the list by course/section
□ Catch
a preview of a tool being developed for students to check in with their
progress to graduation. Here's an example for a current junior: http://hsfiintranet/studentdash/grad_tracker/221228661.html
□ Student
daily attendance by period: On an individual student's page you can get a
summary of their attendance numbers by course/section. There's a beta version
column trying to measure how often that student is in school but did not attend
your period. Note: It is not yet accurate for classes that meet every other day
or for classes with a start date later than the first day of school.
● FINAL ROUND OF PLC INTERVISITATIONS
The
next, and final, round of PLC Intervisitations have to be completed by Friday,
May 3, and the notes have to be entered by 4:00 pm.
Here's the form link:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScO6P1MOJmG7zwvcsg6Pbf5v3BtnIhIRIj0brEoKQPknZ5-jw/viewform?usp=sf_link

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScO6P1MOJmG7zwvcsg6Pbf5v3BtnIhIRIj0brEoKQPknZ5-jw/viewform?usp=sf_link
● EVALUATIVE OBSERVATIONS
□ 4TH Round
of Evaluative Observations – April 15 – May 10 (this is a change from the
original calendar)
● SPRING MARKING PERIODS
□ 3rd
Marking Period ends Monday, June 17
● FASHION SHOW MODELS EXCUSED FROM CLASS ON SELECTED DAYS
Our Fashion Show models
need to be excused from class on four specific days to get ready for this big
event – here are the dates:
□ May 6,
Monday - First
Monday, all day practice
□ May 13,
Monday - Day
before Industry Show
□ May 15,
Wednesday – Middle School Feeder Show (excused through Period 5)
□ May 16,
Thursday - Day
before Public Show
● ANNUALIZATION GRADING POLICY CHANGES BY THE NYC DOE
The NYC Department of Education policy
towards annualization has changed from last year.
□ Last
year, if a student failed semester 1 of an annualized class, but passed
semester 2, the student was given a grade of P for the 1st semester class on
their transcript.
□ This
year, that policy is no longer in place. This came from NYCDOE academic
policy last spring. So we're annualized in terms of curriculum and
students, but not on an annualized grading model.
This means that students will have to make up the failed class
through SOARR Academy or through Summer School.
● IMPORTANT SPECIAL EDUCATION REMINDERS FOR THE SPRING TERM
Thank
you in advance for completing teacher forms and participating in IEP meetings.
Teacher Form responses or information you share during the meeting is a great
example of how your insight helps us to create an authentic, student specific
IEP. This form helps us to address students’ academic needs, assess their
progress in/with the general education curriculum and justify services through
the IEP. Your voice and input is incredibly valuable in creating this legal
document, which is unique to each child. Attending meetings is also important,
as it is a requirement to have a general education teacher at an IEP present.
Please understand we try to work around teacher schedules, when scheduling
however, there are times when this does not align to a parent/family members
schedule.
In addition to asking a special educator, you can easily determine which students in your class have IEP's by reviewing your class roster. Students who are placed in ICT classes have the letter at the end of their official (ex-45P) and our Self-contained students will continue to have the letter at the beginning of their official class. Students within our D75 Inclusion Program will have an L as the first letter of their official class.
If you have any questions regarding IEP's of services offered through HSFI, don't hesitate to stop in to 329 or call ext 3294.

● PARENT ENGAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Keep in mind the main ways that we maintain high levels of Parent
Engagement:
#1 - Keeping Jupiter up-to-date so that students and parents know
where students stand in your class
#2 – You are contractually required to set aside 1 specific period
set aside for Parent Engagement where you make calls and emails to families of
at-risk students. If a student is
failing, you need to make verbal contact with that family
#3 - Check your DOE Email everyday - Not HSFI email – you should forward
your HSFI emails to your DOE email. If a
parent emails you, they should expect a response in a timely manner
● IMPORTANT HOMEWORK REMINDERS
#1 – Please follow our policy of ‘No New HW Wednesdays’
#2 – Do not give a HW assignment unless you will be giving
meaningful feedback back to students – a check or score at the top of a paper
does not mean much to students. This is
especially true for honors and Advanced Placement courses where the amount and
difficulty of readings and assignments is high
● GUIDELINES TO MAINTAIN SCHOOL CLIMATE
□
Pass needed to go anywhere outside of your classroom / specific Falcon
Health Center pass
□
No passes first 10 minutes of class (unless emergency)
□
No passes last 10 minutes of class (unless emergency)
□
Electronic Equipment for educational purposes allowed / all other
purposes should be a referral / Leave confiscating to supervisors and deans /
NO CHARGING PHONES
WHERE CAN STUDENTS
GO WHEN NOT IN CLASS?
□
Before 1st Period – Cafeteria, Student Computer Lab (Room
201), Hallways
□
Once Period 1 begins – students cannot be in the hallways – can go to the
Cafeteria, Student Computer Lab, Classroom under teacher supervision
□
Lunch Periods (4-7) – Cafeteria, Student Lounge, Library (except 7th
period), Student Computer Lab, Classroom under teacher supervision
□
Students waiting for afterschool activities - Student Computer Lab,
Library, Classroom under teacher supervision
YOU CANNOT ALLOW A STUDENT TO STAY IN YOUR CLASSROOM / OFFICE WHEN YOU
ARE NOT THERE – ASK THEM TO LEAVE & COME BACK

● CANNOT LEAVE STUDENTS UNATTENDED
You cannot leave students
unattended anywhere in the building – a classroom or office, the Auditorium or
Cafeteria – if you have to leave a particular area, ask the students to leave
with you.
● PROTOCOLS FOR RESPONDING TO CLASSROOM
INCIDENTS
In the event of an incident in your classroom that creates
disruption (student is defiant and / or uncooperative) but is NOT A THREAT
to student and/or staff safety, the following protocol should be followed:
□ Classroom management,
i.e., using your skills as an educator to move on from the situation, followed
by
□ A phone call to your
Supervisor informing them of the incident and the steps you have taken to
address the matter, followed by
□ A referral to the
Peace Center and/or the Guidance Department via Google Docs., followed by
□ Outreach to parents,
informing them of their child’s misbehavior, and request for family support to
correct the matter.
In the event of an incident in your classroom that involves an immediate
THREAT to student and/or staff safety, the following protocol should be
followed:
□ A phone call to the Peace Center (x1491 or x1431) informing
available staff of the incident and requesting assistance, followed by
□ A phone call to School Safety (x1341) informing them of the
location and nature of the incident and requesting assistance, followed by
□ A call to your Supervisor informing them of the incident and the
steps you have taken to address it.
