SEL YOUTH LEADERS
I wanted to share with some photos of our SEL Youth Leaders receiving their Permission To Feel books this past Wednesday as part of their training with Ms. Molloy, Ms. Parisse, Ms. Rochford and Ms. Santos. It is wonderful to see our students empowered and taking a leadership role with their classmates to build the emotional intelligence of our community.
Thank you once again to Ms. Molloy, Ms. Parisse, Ms. Rochford and Ms. Santos for their enlightened efforts to help and support our community around Social Emotional Learning!

SCHOOL CALENDAR:
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
HOLIDAYS ARE DIFFICULT TIMES FOR MANY STUDENTS
We are entering a stressful time for our students - with daylight savings time in effect, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a common cause of the blues in the winter months due to a decrease in sunlight The holidays are often a reminder of loved ones that are no longer with us - COVID has certainly increased the chance for loss. Please look for changes in your students and let one of our mental health professionals know if you see a child in distress.
HSFI ‘CHALLENGED’ GOAL – RIGOR & RELEVANCE
MAKE SURE THERE IS A CHALLENGE PART OF AN ASSIGNMENT
Our two school goals are to make sure our students feel cared for and challenged. Continue to challenge students in your classes with ‘challenge’ activities as part of any assignment and/or project. Use Fashion Dollars to help motivate students to complete these challenges. The inventory at the FLY store is impressive and motivating.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW ITEMS:
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ENGAGEMENT THIS PAST WEDNESDAY DURING OUR OPW SESSIONS FOCUSED ON SCHOOL TONE

ELEVATOR STATUS
Regarding our elevators, I wanted to let everyone know that next week we will possibly be switching sides with students with respect to the bank of elevators we are using. Elevator #1 on the student side might be out of commission for an extended period of time leaving students with only two elevators. We are trying to get the elevator programming company to make the switch. I will let you know the progress of this change.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAKE SURE THE COPY ROOM / 423 IS LOCKED
Please make sure the Copy Room / 423 is locked – we found some students in there recently – we do not want them messing around with those sensitive machines. Thank you!

STAFF TOWN HALLS
Staff Town Halls will be back in December and continue through the remainder of the school year. The town halls will take place on Fridays during the lunch periods (4-7) in Room 821. As always, feel free to come and speak about anything you wish. Student town halls will be starting up this month.
Here are the list of dates:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCHOOL SAFETY / SHOWING OUR IDs
We had 3 students from another high school get into the school building on Friday, November 5. They walked right by the security desk at 11:00 am. School safety says it is not their responsibility for stopping these intruders - I find this absolutely ridiculous. Moving forward, I have requested that school safety check IDs of all people entering the building who do not swipe their student ID cards. This means that when you enter the building, please show your school ID to school safety – this includes in the morning when you arrive at school and when you come back into the building during the school day. I apologize for the inconvenience, but we need to make sure we are all safe. Thank you for understanding!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEVERAUX STUDENTS STRENGTHS ASSESSMENT (DESSA)
The next assessment that the NYC Department of Education has recently mandated for all students is “a strengths-based social emotional screener” known as the Devereaux Students Strengths Assessment (DESSA). The DESSA asks questions about areas of social-emotional functioning including decision making, relationship building, confidence, and others. The Department of Education believes the information collected will be helpful to schools in providing support to students.
It is my understanding that the DOE & UFT are in discussions about the administration of the DESSA. I included information about the DESSA to Fashion Families in my weekly message. Once this is resolved, we will be in touch about the administration of this assessment.
Here are some website links with more information about the DESSA:
About the DESSA - https://info.apertureed.com/parent-portal & https://info.apertureed.com/strongresilientnyc
DESSA Frequently Asked Questions - https://info.apertureed.com/nycfaqs
As a school we are doing our part to get to know our students and their needs. Social emotional support is available to all students at our school from all of us including our community partners. Our Redesigned Wednesdays contains an emotional intelligence discussion class.
Here is a website link to a PDF of our Wellness Team and all the services that we provide to our students:

IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN - STUDENTS REQUESTING COLLEGE LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION
It is that time of year again - students will start requesting College Letters of Recommendation. Here is a message from our College Counselor, Kate McKeon about these College Recommendations – thank you Ms. McKeon!
Our seniors are in the process of requesting letters of recommendation, so we wanted to take a minute to update new staff and give a quick refresher for returning staff on this process.
We will continue to use Scoir (pronounced Score), students have access to SCOIR and have begun their college selection and application process. When a student requests a letter of recommendation, you will receive an email notification with a link to SCOIR. When responding to your first request (new teachers), you will be prompted to create a password that you will use for subsequent logins. Returning users just log into your account (the associated email is your DOE, not HSFI email). To provide a letter of recommendation, you may either type the letter directly into SCOIR on the school letterhead provided or upload a letter in PDF format. Your letter will then be available for the counseling department to send electronically with the student’s other application materials.
□ There is no need to send students to the college office for the letter of rec info sheet - this no longer exists. Students enter all information in the personal bio section of Scoir which you have access to once the student requests the letter from you.
□ If you receive a letter of rec request from the Common Application, please don't submit the letter and contact me directly. This means the student made an error that needs to be corrected.
□ If you are writing a letter of recommendation for a student applying to CUNY, you will get a separate email from CUNY to upload your letter of recommendation.
□ If you are new to HSFI, please keep an eye out for your invitation to SCOIR that will be sent to your DOE email.
□ And just a reminder there is no teacher evaluation that goes along with the letter in Scoir. Yay!!
Attached is a link to a Google Doc that shares some tips and strategies on writing letters of recommendation and a section specifically tailored to COVID-19 and how to explain the impacts it has had on your relationship with students. For some students these letters will have a large impact on their admission decisions so your time and thoughtfulness is appreciated. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mIC2DjC8WYiCzrDqca70h7ioURogHZcDpkh2ZFadc8g/edit?usp=sharing
Please contact me at kmckeon4@hsfi.us if you have any questions or issues with Scoir.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DATA DASHBOARD FEATURE TO LOOK UP TUTORING / CONTENT STUDIOS AVAILABILITY ON WEDNESDAYS
Mr. Stampone has done it again - here is his go around at creating a link where students and staff can lookup Content Studios based on specific student programs:
http://hsfi-datadashboard-v3.herokuapp.com/wednesday/
Here is the physical list of teachers and their Study Hall periods and the classroom they are in.
Connect with your Study Hall students to
(1) See what subject area they need support in and then try to connect them with a teacher who has space to support them; or
(2) If their specific teacher is available for help.
The one way we have right now to make this connection is to call rooms to see if there is space available – you add the number 1 to all room numbers for the phone extensions except for the 9th floor where you put the number 1 in front of the classroom. For example, Room 725’s phone extension is 7251 and Room 925’s extension is 1925.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JUPITER NOW SYNCS WITH THE DATA DASHBOARD WHICH MEANS ATTENDANCE & ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION IS NOW PART OF A STUDENT’S DASHBOARD PROFILE
The dashboard now syncs daily with Jupiter to include attendance and assignment information. On a student page, you can view the assignments turned in (or not turned in) by the student. Additionally there is a section showing the student attendance summary and a list of specific days absent according to ATS records as of that morning.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROCEDURES FOR TEACHERS PROCESSING ADD / DROPS ON JUPITER
This memorandum outlines the procedure for teachers processing add/drops on Jupiter.
Here is Google document link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1e0Figcy2deyQQ51CVSlvK7Jd3pszUMXR9s5cZFsUtVE/edit?usp=sharing
Even though the program changes period is complete, the programming office continues to make student program changes. These program changes arise from changes to IEP recommended program, security & safety concerns, NX reconciliations, and transfer credits.
Students are programmed in STARS (which populates to STARS classroom automatically). These schedules are uploaded to the dashboard and to Jupiter twice a week. When a change is made, students are directed to pick up a new paper program from their counselor or the wellness office. Period attendance (white sheets) are printed once a week and will not reflect changes. Daily attendance (blue sheets) are printed automatically each morning and will reflect the changes as of 4pm the day prior.
When a student is dropped from a Jupiter section, a red ❌ will appear next to the student’s name on the Grades➔Student tab. The teacher should finalize entering any outstanding grades for the student and complete the drop by clicking the red ❌. Until the red ❌ is clicked and the drop completed, the course will continue to appear on the student’s Jupiter schedule. The student will not be released and automatically added to the new teacher’s roster until the drop is completed.
If the student is changing from one period to another of the same teacher, any assignments that are created in the old period and the new period will transfer automatically.
New students to your roster will be denoted with a green ➕. Once the drop is processed, you will gain full access to them in your gradebook.
If you have any questions about the class enrollment of a particular student, contact the student’s guidance counselor.

WHERE TO GO AT HSFI WHEN STUDENTS ARE NOT IN CLASS
In order to improve the smooth functioning of the school, we will be emphasizing to our students that they need to be in a specific location and not in the hallways when they have lunch or a study hall. We will share with students a chart that shows students their choices for where they can go during a given period. Students will have a choice of quiet spaces where they can read a book, do their homework or listen to music or more social spaces where they can have conversations with friends and be a little louder. All students found in the hallways will need to have a pass from a teacher and a copy of their program to show where they are supposed to be.
THANK YOU to all the staff members who volunteered to oversee a quiet space for our students.
Here is the preliminary chart:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUPPORTING STUDENTS WITH IEPs
We have begun to host meetings and distribute IEP teacher forms, please complete these forms as you receive them as they are crucial in creating a quality IEP. If you are invited to a meeting you will receive a calendar invitation and remember, meetings are hosted virtually. With this in mind, you will need a quiet, secure location in order to participate; You are welcome to join us in 329 if you are unable to locate a space.
In addition, at the beginning of the year we in room 329 wanted to provide everyone with a reminder regarding students with IEPs and SESIS as well as the sections of the IEP which you may find most helpful when planning your instruction.
Please refer to the document below and let us know if you have any questions.
