End school year on the day of graduation, 6 to 7 days earlier than the district

Question as per our 21st C Goal?Does the current practice of allowing 8th

graders to end school 6 to 10 days earlier than all K-11th grade students match the district’s mission and vision and our 21st Century learning criteria?

Does the current practice of the 8th grade graduation ceremony math the district’s mission and vision and our 21st Century learning criteria?

Thoughts/ Suggestions to the following recommendation

Combine 8th grade graduation with an awards/recognition ceremony on/near the last full day of school.

Individually indicate your level of support by placing a number on the sticking note. If you chose 1 or 2, indicate why you cannot support the recommendation.

Issues…Issues…Need time for teachers to engage

weekly in a Professional Learning Community!

There is currently no “time” built into the schedule for teachers to meet weekly

PLCs are a key strategy in the deployment of the strategic plan

To create this time, a schedule change is needed.

Change isn’t easily implemented and sometimes not welcomed!

CriteriaCriteriaThe committee identified criteria used to process

all of the schedule change options including: Change should be system-wide providing

release time for ALL teachers K-12Change should be as “instructional time”

neutral as possibleChange should be as “work day” neutral as

possible; not adding to the teacher work dayChange should have the least negative impact

on: ◦ Family inconveniences◦ Transportation difficulties◦ Staffing impacts
