Waimea HS teachers and administrators will be
learning more about what it takes to become a Future Ready School as we are
sending two teams to Oahu for training this week. One group will be at the Schools of the
Future Conference at the Convention Center where they will have an opportunity
to network with other educators from all over the state and listen to
nationally known speakers talk about:
·
Deeper Learning &
Common Core
·
Multimedia, Gaming &
Simulations
·
Mobile Learning &
1:1 Strategies
·
Project-Based /
Design-Based Learning
Our second group of teachers and administrators
will be at the Victoria Bernhardt Data Analysis training at Pearl Country Club
this week Tuesday - Thursday. They will
learn more about how to use the four different types of school data – demographic,
perception, student achievement, and programs/processes – to drive continuous
school improvement. This will be the
second group of WHS staff attending the Bernhardt training; it will allow us to
build capacity at the school level and learn how to utilize data better in our
classes and as an entire system. It will
also help us to prepare for a WASC accreditation visit in Spring 2017.
Please encourage families of 8th
graders at Chiefess Kamakahelei Middle School and St. Theresa School to come
and check out our Discover Waimea evening at Kalaheo School’s cafeteria this
Thursday starting at 6 pm. We will have
presentations by students and staff from each of our Career Tech Education
Pathways and our JROTC programs, refreshments, and lucky number drawings. It will be a fun night and a great
opportunity to learn more about our school!
Have a good week everyone.
