We are EXCITED to get the year started! Teacher Advisory (TA) has been re-vamped to better meet students’ needs. Teacher advisory is, at the end of the day, about making connections with students - to have an adult advocate. We will be doing lessons and other activities through TA including character education, anti-bullying, reading, studying, and preparing for student-led conferences. On Mondays in TA we will be having Drop Everything and Read (DEAR) and student assignment discussions with students. Teachers will talk with students who have missing assignments or low grades and help them make plans to improve using iFlight (our school-wide intervention program) and better study habits. Using TA and iFlight in conjunction with each other will allow us to better guide students through this influential time of their lives.
