WEEKLY BULLETIN for Week Beginning 3.9.20


NYC DOE STAFF SURVEYS
This past week you received a postcard (images below) with the information you need to fill out the DOE Learning Environment staff survey. Please take a few minutes to complete the anonymous survey online.













    















    
We have worked tremendously hard together to create a wonderful learning environment for our students and this is your chance to let the world know about it.
Prospective HSFI parents and families and students look to the results to decide whether they should apply to our school or not.   
The link to the survey is below, but you must have the unique access code from the postcard to proceed:
Thank you for doing the survey – a large response percentage will send a strong message to those looking at the results.


CALL TO ACTION
Every week, I will share with you a ‘Call To Action’ around our school goals that will help drive our work for that week.

HSFI ‘CARED FOR’ GOAL – RELATIONSHIPS & REALNESS

KNOW YOUR STUDENTS – TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE INFORMATION ON THE DATA DASHBOARD
There is a ton of information on your students on the data dashboard – if you truly want to fully know your students, make sure you go through the dashboard to get as much information on them as you can.

HSFI ‘CHALLENGED’ GOAL – RIGOR & RELEVANCE

LET YOUR STUDENTS KNOW WHERE THEY STAND IN YOUR CLASSES AS THE FIRST MARKING PERIOD WINDS DOWN
The first marking period ends on Friday.  Especially with the new grading policy, let your students know where they stand in your class and then challenge them to do better moving forward – whether finishing the marking period or moving onto marking period two.




DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT VISIT TO HSFI
The visit by Marc Rush, our Deputy Superintendent, went extremely well.  This was Mr. Rush’s first interaction with HSFI – he came away appreciating our thoughtful and dedicated efforts.  He was impressed with our plan and execution for having all members of our school community feel cared for and challenged.  He was impressed with our collaborative approach to education through focus groups, professional learning communities and professional learning plans. 
As far as next steps, Deputy Superintendent Rush was very interested in our department ‘Challenged’ projects to ramp up the rigor with our students.  He is looking forward to seeing the progress of these projects and the eventual impact in our classrooms.  He is also looking forward to being invited to our CTE Showcase events including the Senior Art and Fashion Shows.
Thank you to Ms. Batts, Ms. Abramyan, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Trapani and Ms. Husted for representing HSFI so well through visits to their classrooms!
Thank you all for preparing for the visit and taking such pride in being part of the HSFI community.




PROCEDURES FOR FASHION SHOW FITTINGS
CTE teachers will not be asking students to leave classes for fashion show fittings or to finish art show projects this year.  All student absences from academic classes will be done using the permission slip in advance.




SAFETY ISSUE WITH AUDITORIUM
We have a safety issue with the Auditorium.  It is a huge concern of mine that students are in the auditorium alone / unsupervised / in the dark and possibly engaging in negative behavior that does not represent the values of our school.
With this in mind,
#1 - Please do not cut through the auditorium to go back and forth between the east and west sides of the building on the first floor.  You will need to walk around.
#2 - Please do not leave the double doors open on any of the auditorium doors.
We have the custodial staff checking the doors throughout the day to make sure they are locked.




DEVELOPMENT OF SUMMER BRIDGE PROGRAM TO HELP THE TRANSITION OF OUR INCOMING STUDENTS
We are interested in developing a Summer Bridge program for our incoming students for next school year to help them have a smoother transition to high school and our community.  Our initial thoughts were to bring in students for 3 days for 3-4 hours a day during July.  We would run this program for 3 separate weeks so that incoming students could choose one of the three possible weeks to attend.  The below survey asks for your ideas for the program, whether you would like to help plan the program and whether or not you be interested in working the program.  The survey is completely optional.  All questions on the survey are optional.  Thank you!  https://forms.gle/Jg8isRFjVQMECgTw5

ATTENDANCE FOR STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Teachers are responsible for recording all student attendance at extracurricular activities such as clubs, tutoring etc. 
Please note, we have changed the process for recording students’ attendance.  You will now use the data dashboard to record student attendance (Teacher Tools-->Student Activity Attendance). Students will no longer be individually logging in for activities.

Best Practices:
A hard copy/back up of student signatures is not required, but may be helpful.
When logging student attendance through the Data Dashboard, teachers should click "submit" once at the conclusion of the activity to avoid multiple submissions.
Contact Shannon Kohm with questions at skohm@school.nyc.gov, or ext. 5151





THE WRITING REVOLUTION – IMPORTANT REMINDERS
If you are implementing the program in your classroom, you should have your TWR posters displayed in the front of your classroom as close to eye-level as possible. Use them to model, prompt and remind students when reinforcing skills.

If need replacement posters, they are available in the TWR Resource Library along with all kinds of customizable materials. (If you don't have a log in, you can use User Name: nmoore Password: Fashion1)
https://www.thewritingrevolution.org/resources/




IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONAL REMINDERS

OUR INSTRUCTIONAL FOCUS FOR 2019-20 & BEYOND
□ Every student feels cared for
□ Every student feels challenged

PLC INTERVISITATION ROUND 3 IS GOING ON NOW
Everyone should visit someone and be visited by someone between March 3 - 26
These visits should be approximately 30 minutes in length.
After the visit, you’ll use a Google Form to briefly record the following by March 27
Google Form:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeQTyhtTyGd8hEk3n-ZhkQwIOLJmDDQMbHcuwt2rdOTfSdrYw/viewform?usp=sf_link

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO SUPPORT OUR STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
We in room 329 would like to provide you with some new and exciting updates regarding accessing information for SWD. Within the HSFI Dashboard SWD have a blue circular icon next to their name. When you select this icon, it will direct you to SESIS where you an access your students IEP and important information about the way they learn. In addition, while reviewing the IEP you may notice your Teacher Form responses or information you shared during the meeting- this is a great example of how your insight helps us to create an authentic, student specific IEP. The information you are required to complete on the teacher form is subject specific and your insight will better help us in determine the needs of our students with IEPs. The Teacher Form in conjunction with your participation at the IEP meeting (if you are invited) are two critical elements we need in order to best serve our students. We try to plan our IEP and Triennial meetings with teacher schedules in mind, however there are times when families are only available at specific times and a coverage will be requested for your class. Thank you in advance for participating in meetings! 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 and at this time will not appear when you log-in to SESIS. We are working to gain access for those who need it. In the interim you are invited to stop by 329 to speak with Ms. Smith-Brown and review a hard copy of their IEP(s).

If you have not already done so, please come to room 329 and sign the Chapter 408 binder As always, feel free to reach out to Ms. McGuinness (ex. 3289) with any questions you may have regarding Special Education and services. Thank you for your continued support of our students

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




DATA DASHBOARD CORNER
We thank Mr. Stampone for all his efforts to get staff all the student information they need!
The bookmark to the HSFI Student Data Dashboard is: https://hsfi-data-dashboard.herokuapp.com/

Keep teachers and counselors in the know about a particular student by logging teacher notes. Teacher notes are viewable on your dashboard homepage and a full list under Students -> Teacher Notes https://hsfi-data-dashboard.herokuapp.com/teachernotes This is a great place to drop in any parent engagement you might have done that other staff members would benefit from knowing. On an individual student's page you could download all the teacher notes written about them which could make for a great log of assistance/outreach if needed. Write some teacher notes today because knowledge is power

The attendance form for student activities has transitioned from Google Forms to the Data Dashboard. You'll find the electronic attendance sheet under Teacher Tools -> Student Activity Attendance https://hsfi-data-dashboard.herokuapp.com/afterschool Submit this form just once at the end of your activity and select all the names of all the students that attended. Each submission will create a digital record of the attendance sheet which makes for documentation for Per Session as well as inserts the activities and dates into each student's dashboard page. You can see what a student has participated in by scrolling down to Student After School Activities. Looking forward to seeing just how involved our students are! If there are any after school activities that were left out in error from this initial list, please let Mr. Stampone know.

As always, if you have any questions, comments, concerns or suggestions for the dashboard, please contact Mr. Stampone (dstampone@hsfi.us) with your feedback.

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.




CLASS TRIP REMINDERS
As we start the school year, I wanted to share with staff the field trip guidelines that we put into place last year.  All of us should plan to adhere to these guidelines – for staff planning the trips and staff receiving the trip requests.  The only exception that we ask of everyone is to be flexible with last minute trips that are brought to us by our Advisory Board and industry partners – too often they share with us the details in a last minute fashion.  Thank you in advance for the cooperation!
Trips must be approved 3 weeks in advance - No trips in January & June
A Master Calendar of trips will be posted in the Weekly Bulletin with a description of the trip and grade level
Teachers cannot veto student participation on trips, but students must understand they are responsible for all makeup work / Do not penalize students for missing class due to a school trip
