September 13 – 17

Super Units are in full swing, power standards are being taught, students are asking great questions, and communicating in a variety of ways.

I’d say we’ve successfully launched a very high quality VS program and are finding our groove and our parent feedback supports this. Dan will share this out next week. Well done everyone!

You are making a difference every, single, day.

Covid Relief Community Support: Our grand total was 400, 700, 008 VND. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

Here is a FlipGrid page where students and teachers can post positive messages, artwork, songs, poems (basically anything!) for the Saigon community during this time. 

Professional Development Opportunities: I have started a sidebar widget with links to amazing PD opportunities. If you know of others, please share with me, and I will continue to populate this.

Bright Spots: Please take a moment to read the “bright spots” that were shared last week on the right side widget! Let’s continue to focus on, and celebrate, the good things.

When we do this we can share a joyful educator moment or share a shout out to a staff member who has brightened our day. You can find the form here!
