“I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.” — Winston Churchill
— Winston Churchill
This week many of us will be in the Adaptive Schools training. How you approach this week will be critical to your learning and growth. It is easy to think of all the work that has to be done. There is always work to be done. Please be present in the moment and know that your classes, your students and their learning will continue. What I love about SSIS is the level and capacity of our people to make sure we continue teaching and learning at high levels. This week will be no different. Enjoy the time to learning alongside your colleagues from all 3 divisions.
Our students will hear and see their teachers demonstrating the Core Value of Academic Excellence. Enjoy the learning!
Weekly Focus:
Our focus this week will be sense of self. Our ASA assembly students will be modeling this on Monday morning.
