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
● MAY IS ASIAN AMERICAN & PACIFIC
ISLANDER HERITAGE MONTH / RECOGNIZE & CELEBRATE THIS IN YOUR CLASSROOMS
& OFFICES
May is Asian American
and Pacific Islander Heritage Month recognizing the contributions and influence
of Asian Americans and Pacific Islander Americans to the history, culture, and
achievements of the United States.
We look forward to
celebrating the contributions of Asian
Americans and Pacific Islander Americans to our nation. We are working on
getting you some resources to use to celebrate Asian
American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
● UTILIZE REFERRALS / TEACHER NOTES / HIGH PRIORITY TEACHER NOTES
We all deal with at-risk students,
therefore all teachers and counselors should be utilizing referrals, teacher
notes and high priority teacher notes to effectively communicate about these
students that will benefit from all HSFI staff knowing what is going on with
them.
A Referral is defined as the process to get students additional
assistance to resolve an issue.
A Teacher Note is defined as a general update
regarding teacher outreach conducted and student progress made.
A High Priority Teacher Note is defined as information that
impacts a student's well-being or health that is urgent and important.
HSFI ‘CHALLENGED’
GOAL – RIGOR & RELEVANCE
● CREATE SAFE SPACES FOR YOUR STUDENTS USING BEST PRACTICES FROM ‘NOT
LIGHT, BUT FIRE’
Use the best practices highlighted
in the ‘Not Light, But Fire’ book to get to know your students and build
community in your classroom. These safe
spaces will be crucial to you being able to challenge students with rigorous
content and activities.
NEW ITEMS
LAUNCH OF ‘LET’S TALK NYC’
In
partnership with the DOE, the School of Mental Health Program, the Jed
Foundation, and Ogilvy Health, the Mayor’s Office of Community Mental Health
has launched “Let’s Talk NYC,” a self-guided online training that prepares all
high school staff, regardless of their role, to become mental-health allies.
After completing the “Let’s Talk NYC” training, staff will receive digital and
physical badges that will help identify them as adults who will listen to
students and support their mental health. In the fall, all schools will
receive posters to hang in their school building to help reinforce “Let’s Talk
NYC” messages, by addressing the stigma of mental health issues, encouraging
students to share how they are feeling with school staff, and promoting
help-seeking behavior.

SUMMER SCHOOL 2021 INTEREST?
I know many of you have ideas about
Summer School and I look forward to hearing them once we get more guidance on
what we can and cannot do this summer. In the meantime, please take a moment to indicate
your initial interest and availability to work summer school.
The general
framework to Summer School will include:
□ Run from
7/6-8/13 Mondays through Thursdays with Hours TBD.
□ We will need
to offer students a combination of remote and in-person classes (In person
classes will take place at Park West HS). The majority of classes will be
centered around NX support, however there may also be some full length (45
hour) summer school classes as well.
Again, once we
get more guidance on summer, we will connect to work around this framework.

Thank you!
THOUGHTS FOR THE 2021-22 SCHOOL YEAR
As we wind down the
2020-21 school year, I wanted to get our school community's thoughts for the
upcoming school year based on reflections from this challenging year. We
want strong voices from all members of the HSFI community including students,
families and staff. Based on the responses, we hope to form planning
teams over the next two months to be ready for the summer and the Fall.
For example, one
question that I am asking is:
'What do you think the
goals of next school year (2021-22) should be?'
My responses would be:
(1) Help students enjoy
school again and get used to being in person once again
(2) Help students
through these stressful times that could have included illness, death, economic
stress, food insecurity, being stuck at home and racial unrest
(3) Help students who
have fallen behind in school either in credits, actual learning or both
(4) Help students who
have been totally disengaged from school under these circumstances
(5) Student voice and
feedback should be at the center of all that we do
Thank you! I look
forward to reading your responses!

survey: https://forms.gle/eqCb6DdfmmHn5fFU6
