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
● INVEST TIME IN GETTING TO KNOW YOUR STUDENTS & BUILDING COMMUNITY
IN YOUR CLASSROOM
There have been program changes, so
many classes are a mix of students you previously had and new students. You are not going to be able to challenge
your new students academically unless they know you cared about and have their
best interests at heart. Use the
beginning of the term to get to know these students and build community in your
classroom – this investment of time and energy will go a long way when you want
to ramp up the rigor with your students.
They will follow you anywhere academically when they know there is that
level of care.
HSFI ‘CHALLENGED’
GOAL – RIGOR & RELEVANCE
● NEED TO COMBINE RIGOR & FUN
Let’s continue to try
and make school fun and social for our students – just like us who might have
been cooped up for the past 11 months, our students need to be engaged and
enjoy what they are doing. Our students
want to make new friends and reconnect with old friends. A great lesson of our successful clubs and
activities has been fostering ‘Student Choice’ and ‘Student Leadership’ as much
as possible.
HSFI CTE TEACHER OF THE YEAR – CONGRATULATIONS JUNE ARCAMAY
The CTE department voted for HSFI's
recipient of the CTE Award recognized by the UFT each year – this year’s winner
is June Arcamay. Her nominating
colleagues wrote:
□ I would like to nominate Ms.
ArcaMay for her tireless commitment and contributions to our social media
platforms and website. These channels are the windows into our world for
potential students and their families and paths of communication for current
students and since she has been at its helm we have been praised by many middle
school counselors and families! She deserves it!
□ Her contributions to the
overall school community by employing a consistently excellent and professional
design style for all of our school’s graphics. This style can be seen in the
posters on the walls, posts on Instagram, our school website and the many
engaging, entertaining and informative videos she has created for our virtual
CTE showcases.
□ She communicates her professional
design style to her students every day in her CTE classes. She constantly seeks
to innovate in the way she delivers her lesson content virtually to her
students (I know this because we compare notes every week in our focus group
meetings) and models to them ways the skills they are learning can be used in
the real world - in careers not just in the design field but in many of the
industries that rely on employees abilities to creatively problem solve.
NEXT CLUBS & ACTIVITIES DATE IS FEBRUARY 24
I am working on a
Spring Calendar to send out soon – due to this Monday being a PD Day, we will
have Monday classes next Wednesday so there will be No Clubs & Activities
next week / the following week there is no school on Friday, Feb. 12 (Lunar New
Year) – we will have Friday classes on that Wednesday so there will be No Clubs
& Activities that week. The next
Clubs & Activities date is February 24 – I apologize for not getting you
this information earlier. Please let your students in your clubs and
activities know.
CLASS ROSTERS ARE SET
Class rosters are on
Jupiter as of Sunday morning. Many thanks to Mr. Stampone for all his
efforts in making sure we are all set. He is sending all teachers rosters
this morning.
Here is the message
being sent to students and families:
We've improved the process for
accessing your schedule and knowing exactly which classes you have on each day
of the week.
First, log into Jupiter Grades.
Next, click the menu button in the
upper left corner.
Near the bottom of the vertical
menu bar, click on "Calendar". This calendar includes school-wide
announcements and assignment due dates for your classes. To see your class
schedule on a particular day, click on that date. To see the first day of the
second semester schedule, click on February 2nd. The list shows the meeting
times of your classes on that day.
This semester, you have classes
that meet on Mondays and Thursdays and classes that meet on Tuesdays and
Fridays. The half credit classes meet one day of the week.
Schedules will be available for
students and families to see on Monday.
Teachers will set up Google
Classrooms, recurring calendar events, Zoom meetings, etc. over the next few
days so make sure you monitor your Jupiter and email accounts.
SUPPORTING
STUDENTS WITH IEPs
With
the beginning of the second semester we want to remind you of how to determine
which students in your class have an IEP. 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. In addition, when logging onto the
Dashboard, students with an IEP' have a blue icon alongside their name.
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.
You can access your students IEP by logging onto SESIS
(https://sesis.nycenet.edu/userlogin.aspx?WorkspaceID=NYCONFIG) with your
NYCDOE credentials.
PARTICIPATING IN IEP MEETINGS & TEACHER FORMS
We
will continue to host IEP meetings on Wednesday, unless parents request another
day, via Google Meet with participants receiving calendar invitations the week
before the meeting. A general education teacher is a legally mandated
participant in meetings and individuals have been selected based on Wednesday
schedule availability. Prior to meetings you will also receive a Teacher Form
to complete. The teacher form is the foundation of an IEP and clearly outlines
students’ strengths and areas in need of additional support, especially this
school year. Please complete these forms as you receive them as they help guide
the writing of the IEP and meeting. When preparing for meetings, you can review
your Teacher Form responses in order to share specific information about the students’
progress as it relates to the skills and content or your class.
WEDNESDAY ACTIVITIES & IEP MEETINGS
With
our Wednesday clubs taking place, please know you will be invited to IEP
meetings during your department PD period(s). There will be some exceptions to
this as some of our students only have one general education teacher and the
meeting may take place during your club or tutoring. If this occurs, you will
receive an email ahead of time to plan for the day and your participation in
the meeting.
Thank
you for your continued support and as always, feel free to reach out to Ms.
McGuinness with any questions you may have regarding Special Education and
services
NYC DOE TEACHER SCHOOL EXPERIENCE SURVEY
The NYC Department of
Education has created a School Experience Survey for students, teachers and
families. Here is the below link to the survey if you want to take the
survey. The survey asks you to identify your school – we are listed as ‘The
High School of Fashion Industries – 02M600’ – remember the ‘The’ in
the name. Thank you.

MANDATORY WEEKLY COVID-19 IS COMING TO HSFI
To ensure schools remain a safe and healthy place to learn, all
schools will have 20% of students and staff tested on a weekly basis. As
required by the DOE, the COVID-19 testing consent form is required by the first
day you report to the building. It is
advisable that all staff complete this form, regardless if you are remote or
otherwise.
To obtain access to the consent form, click on the hyperlink and
scroll down to number 3 where it says ‘Staff Consent’ - Mandatory Weekly COVID-19 Testing
You must log in with you DOE credentials and click the tab that
says “consent”. Unfortunately, the automatic response feature is not
activated, so you will not be able to receive a response that the information
was collected.
Failure to comply with this request may
lead to the DOE placing you on unpaid leave.
DATA
DASHBOARD CORNER
Mr. Stampone has done
it again to support all of us at HSFI – he redesigned the Data Dashboard – here
is the new link - https://hsfi-datadashboard-v3.herokuapp.com
Thank you Mr. Stampone – the Data
Dashboard is a game changer for our community.
HSFI’s RACE & EQUITY WORK CONTINUES…
HSFI CULTURAL CONNECTIONS CLASSROOM
We would like to introduce you to
the HSFI Cultural Connections Classroom! On this page you will find
resources to guide your culturally responsive teaching practices. These
resources are a small piece of our overall work and mission to be more
cognizant in our planning as it relates to students and their
experiences. We know many of you also have great resources and this is a
great forum to share those with our HSFI community.
The materials currently uploaded
are aligned to the NYS Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Education (CR-SE)
framework which helps educators create student-centered learning environments
that: affirm racial, linguistic and cultural identities; develop student'
abilities to connect across lines of difference; elevate historically
marginalized voices; prepare students for rigor and independent learning; and
empower students as agents of social change.
The New York State guidelines for
culturally responsive-sustaining education are rooted in a vision of an
education system that fosters:
-Students who experience academic
success
-Students who are socio-politically
conscious and socio-culturally responsive
-Students who have a critical lens
through which they challenge inequitable systems of access, power, and
privilege.
GUIDANCE VIRTUAL WEBSITE
Please
take a look at the Guidance Virtual Website created by Ms. Padron where
students can look up important information and make appointment with their
counselors. Teachers should free to post this on their Google Classrooms to
raise student awareness of this valuable resource:
www.tinyurl.com/hsfiguidancehome
All Students:
Events will be rolling out all month, so make sure to check social media and
daily announcements for exciting activities.
For Teachers: Alison
Kaslow from Partnership with Children is offering “drop-in” services for your
students at the start of your periods. If you’d like to have her provide your
class with a brief 2-5 minute guided meditation send an email request at
pwc@hsfi.us. Please include Class Name, Class Time, Room Number (In-Person),
and/or Link for you virtual class (Remote). If you’re wondering when might be a
good day for one, perhaps consider an exam day when stress is already high!
SOCIAL
EMOTIONAL LEARNING SUPPORTS
We hope that you are doing
well and having a great beginning to the school year. We know that this
year has been full of challenges to say the least. The Social Emotional
Learning team wanted to supply you with some resources to hopefully make
the transition a smoother one. Please as always, feel free to reach out to us
for any questions or support you may need throughout the year. We will keep
passing along any tools that you may find helpful. Wish you all the best!
https://www.rulerapproach.org/2020_backtoschool/

IMPORTANCE OF CONFIDENTIALTY
Breaches
of confidentiality are taken very seriously by the New York City Department of
Education. Unauthorized disclosures of student information must be documented
and may result in HSFI being in non-compliance with federal, NYS, and NYC
regulations and policies. Outside of staff within our school who have
legitimate educational interests in the student, the following information
should not be shared with any third party:
(1) Any
medical records or information you may have access to, including any disability
or accommodation related to learning or otherwise.
(2) Disciplinary
records
(3) Any
information from a student's education record (without permission from the
parent or student)
IMPORTANT MANDATED REPORTING PROCEDURES – PLEASE READ OVER
In the event that any staff member receives an email
or receives information on a school program used for messaging students i.e.
Jupiter, Google meets, gmail.. or while remote conferencing, from a student which
indicates that the student is in crisis (e.g. alleged child abuse/neglect,
suicidal ideation, self- harm), please follow these steps:
#1 - Before any session, ensure you check any means for student contact
information to make sure you have updated parent / guardian / emergency contact
information.
#2 - Call 911 to report a SUICIDAL IDEATION immediately and
provide the police with student information (make sure the student is not left
alone during this time) INFORM MR RASCHILLA AND
YOUR DIRECT SUPERVISOR IMMEDIATELY.
#3
- As soon as possible, call and email your
administrator(s), copy that student's Guidance Counselor.
#4
- In the case YOU SUSPECT alleged child
abuse/neglect, you must call the Mandated Reporter Hotline (800-635-1522) to
report the alleged incident. Ask for the name of the person that you are
speaking with and the case ID number, MAKE RECORD OF THIS.
Any questions, you can also call ACS Safety First (718- KID-SAFE)
543-7233.
#5
- Upon completing the above steps, you must send a
brief informational email to your administrator(s).
#6
- If a report for child abuse is called, the
following required form would need to be completed and it can be
downloaded at the link below: https://ocfs.ny.gov/main/Forms/cps/LDSS-2221A.docx
#7 - The form should be completed electronically and emailed to
your administrator(s) and borough field support representative(s) for ACS * Guidance can assist with this.
PLEASE REMEMBER, YOU ARE ALL MANDATED REPORTERS DESPITE NOT BEING
PHYSICALLY IN THE BUILDING.
Chancellor Regulation A-750 - Child Abuse and Maltreatment
Prevention https://www.schools.nyc.gov/docs/default-source/default-document-library/a-750-9-28-2017-final-remediated-
wcag2-0
Chancellor Regulation A-755 - Suicide Prevention / Intervention
https://www.schools.nyc.gov/docs/default-source/default-document-library/a-755-english
SUICIDE PREVENTION / INTERVENTION
If you
have knowledge that a student is considering harming themselves (or someone
else) you must report this information to your supervisor, Assistant Principal
Raschilla, or Principal Blank immediately. This directive applies regardless of
whether or not the student has requested that you not share it with anyone. You
cannot maintain assurances of confidentiality with respect to suicidal ideation
and/or intent. Information related to suicidal ideation, intent, or attempts
should be shared with one of the above persons by direct phone contact (do not
leave voicemail) or in-person immediately.
PLEASE DO NOT report this information via email
or voicemail.
Current
circumstances increase the likelihood that information regarding suicidal
ideation and/or intent may be shared virtually. It is crucial when assessing
the risk of suicide in a virtual manner that you determine the location of the
student and if there is anyone else with the student with whom you may speak.
Warning
Signs: Warning signs are behaviors that may signal the presence of suicidal
thinking. These might be considered “cries for help” or “invitations to
intervene.” Warning signs indicate the need to inquire directly about whether
the individual has thoughts of suicide or self-injury immediately.
Common
warning signs include but are not limited to:
□ Statements
such as: “I wish I were dead,” “If such and such doesn’t happen, I will kill
myself,” or “What is the point in living?”
□ Talking
or writing about suicide in text messages, on social media, in chat rooms, in
school assignments, poems, or music lyrics
□ Looking
for a way to attempt suicide, including trying to buy a gun, researching ways
to die, or seeking/buying pills
□ Rapid
shift in mood (e.g., from sullen or depressed to feeling “at peace”) ·
□ Giving
away prized possessions and/or saying final goodbyes
□ Increased
or recent signs of depression or anxiety
□ Making
comments or off-hand remarks that the person feels like a burden
□ Feeling
trapped and unable to see a way out
□ Increased
and/or excessive drug and alcohol use
□ Neglecting
personal appearance
□ A
drop in grades
□ Increased
absences
REPORTING CHILD ABUSE
A
mandated reporter is a person who, because of his or her profession, is legally
required to report any suspicion of child abuse or neglect to the relevant
authorities. These laws are in place to prevent children from being abused and
to end any possible abuse or neglect at the earliest possible stage. New York
State law requires all teachers to report suspected child abuse and neglect to
the state hotline, the New York State Central Register (SCR), directly at
1800.342.3720. If you believe the child is in immediate danger, call 911. If
the SCR believes the report warrants an investigation, the SCR will direct ACS
to begin a child protective investigation. Staff filing reports will be given a
case number that should be shared with their immediate supervisor and Assistant
Principal Giovanni Raschilla. Additionally, individuals reporting a matter to
the SCR should record the name of the representative who took the report.
Important
Facts:
□
Confidentiality: The Social Services Law provides confidentiality for all
sources, including mandated reporters of child abuse and maltreatment reports.
□
Penalties for failure to report: Mandated reporters who fail to report
suspected abuse or neglect can be charged with a crime.
□
Immunity from liability: The Child Protective Service Act states that “any
person, official, or institution participating in good faith in...the making of
a report...pursuant to this title shall have immunity from any liability, civil
or criminal that might otherwise result by reason of such actions.”
□
Malicious and false reporting is against the law
BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS
OSHA’s
Bloodborne Pathogens standard is a federal OSHA regulation (29 CFR 1910.1030)
that prescribes safeguards to protect workers against the health hazards from
exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials, and to reduce
their risk from this exposure. Example health hazards include but are not
limited to Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV, Malaria, Brucellosis, Syphilis, West
Nile Virus, etc. If you believe you have been exposed to a bloodborne pathogen:
□
Immediately wash hands and other skin surfaces with soap and water.
□ If
the eyes are splashed, irrigate the eyes with large amounts of clean water or
sterile saline.
□ If
the mouth or nose is involved, flush with plain water and/or mouthwash if
available
□
Report the injury to your supervisor and Assistant Principal Giovanni
Raschilla.
□ Seek
medical evaluation / treatment AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, during school hours-if
necessary.
If you
have any questions regarding the Bloodborne Pathogens standard or would like
more information on training, please contact Giovanni Raschilla.
USING TECHNOLOGY REQUEST TO SUPPORT INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS WITH TECH
NEEDS
If you know of a student that is
having technology issues, please use Technology Request Form to tell the tech
team of the issue. Include the student
name, technology issue and importantly, a contact number that the tech team can
reach the student / family.

ENTERING THE BUILDING ON REMOTE DAYS
Permits
are required for staff to enter the building on days when the entire school
community is approved to be remote. Staff members are also asked to share their
intentions to be in the building with their direct supervisor. Please do not
arrive to the building on remote days without a permit in place. We need to
make sure that adequate security is present, and that custodial members are not
deep cleaning the building.
In
keeping with safe building operations, all staff will be required to sign the
visitor's logbook and submit to COVID-19 related entry procedures. Masks
remain required PPE during building entry.
Permits
are prepared by Angela Ianniello, secretary to the Principal. Students are not
permitted in the building on days of remote learning.
SAFETY
& SECURITY IMPORTANT REMINDERS
EVACUATION
DRILLS
Emergencies
may happen that will require us to evacuate the building. It is important that
we practice drills so that we become familiar with the process. Often, the fire
alarm system alerts staff and students to start an evacuation. However, there
may also be times when a public address announcement starts an evacuation.
Announcements over a PA system are repeated twice and begin with “Attention”
followed by specific directions. Students should be asked to form a single
line. In cold weather students should be reminded to take their coats and
personal belongings. Staff members should also remember to take attendance
sheet and assembly card. Attendance is taken before, after, and during a drill.
Lastly, staff members are reminded to report injuries, problems, or missing
student to their immediate supervisor and Giovanni Raschilla. As we leave the
building, staff should seek out Peace teachers and building response team
members wearing bright orange vests to lead them away from the building, past
the scaffold and to the corner of the block. If conditions become crowded,
staff may extend the line around the block. Please view the safety video
attached to this bulletin.
