This coming Tuesday, starting at 9:00 AM in MPB 3, we have our second Principal’s Forum for the year. Thank you to our MS PTA Coordinators, Nisha and Rosalina for collecting the parent-submitted questions/issues for follow-up.
We will address the following raised concerns at that meeting:
- Quick review on open issues from last Principal’s Forum
- Standards Based Grading
- What it is
- Brief overview of why schools shift to this
- Communicating Learning Feedback to Students and Parents
- PowerSchool expectations
- Grading timeliness
- Preventing surprise
- Allowing for support
- What are they learning?
- New Timetable for next year
- HomeBase (Advisory) Program
- Mother Tongue Plans for next year
- Parent-School Connection
Other topics that came up will be answered in writing through our eNews in coming weeks, as appropriate.
