Week of November 30-December 2 | Creation Phase Continued & Exhibitions of Learning Scheduling

After a short week last week, groups should be getting back into routine with their ritualized weeks.  Blogs will come out with Announcements this week, but lesson plans will be based on the discipline group and their creation advisor. 

Announcements:

  • Molly will be checking in with you this week to setup Exhibitions of Learning times for venues. She will meet with each group after the first 15 minutes of class each day.  The schedule will be released next week.
  • Remember to ask for the week of Exhibitions of Learning off from work: January 9th through January 12th.  If you need a letter from to school or a phone call to your employer, let us know.  Your advisors are your advocates and any one of us will be willing to advocate for you.
  • Remember our school days are shifted on our Exhibitions of Learning days.  It is your normal school hours and attendance is tracked.  Please avoid scheduling any appointments during the school day (talk with your parents and remind them).  Athletes must have notes from their coaches, otherwise your attendance on those nights are expected (Official hours will be clarified soon).
  • Advisors will be rounding out Evidence Checks this week and entering them into Skyward.  If you have clarifying questions about grades, send emails to your creation advisors for IDEAS Block, not Tim or Molly unless they are your creation advisors.  
  • Advisors, please make sure to mark attendance
