Building School Culture

This week, we had our first all school Monday Meeting. It was a tight squeeze and from it came much reflection. We decided that with our new space, it would make more sense to have grade level school meetings that allow for personalized time to build school culture. This new format will also help new families who attend Coffee Mondays on the 2nd and 4th Monday, to get to know other families with students of the same age group, in a smaller setting. With 200 new students, we have many new families who would like to connect with others and learn more about ways to support our IB curriculum. We will continue to have one all school meeting on the 4th Monday of the month. *On All School Mondays, the morning routine will change due to the need to move cafe tables to make room.

The new format for Monday School Meetings:
1st Monday of month; MYP (grades 6-8)
2nd Monday; K-2 (Coffee Monday for parents 8:00-8:30 followed by meeting)
3rd Monday; 3-5
4th Monday; All School (Coffee Monday for parents 8:00-8:30 followed by meeting)

The new format begins Tuesday, September 5th with MYP (due to Labor Day on Monday)
