Learning Climate – SSR Findings
| Strength Areas | Growth Areas |
|---|---|
| Administration has made it a priority to provide opportunity for community relations to grow through Community Connections Night and monthly coffee talks. We found through all categories that the school is a welcoming and positive environment to be a part of. Students and staff feel that they can depend on others. | An area of growth for the district is to make sure that information is being communicated through one dedicated platform. |
| Students, staff, and parents feel as though school is a safe place to be for all. There is a lot of work that has gone into creating a space for all students with unique needs. The new full time SRO has brought a sense of ease for parents and students. | MS HS disconnect between staff expectations of students. Admin has addressed student transitions from 5 to 6, and 9 months to 9th grade, but staff do not appear to be communicating expectations of student behaviors and learning. |
| Staff are committed to differentiation for students to meet them where they are. It is apparent that staff care for the whole child. | Encourage more families to be involved in student goal setting and reflection. Also to encourage student voices to be more apparent in their learning. |
| Students felt that they are able to achieve their goals that are set for them. | Dedicate time for goal setting and reflection with students to give ownership of learning. Allow students to create their own growth goals. |
