SCHOOL LEADERSHIP MESSAGE
I just want to take a moment to celebrate what a JOYful week this has been. Seeing our students light up in their Halloween costumes, seeing their big smiles on field trips, and watching the creative energy you all poured into these experiences, it reminded me of how powerful JOY can be in a school community. You made space for fun, connection, and belonging, and it was contagious. Thank you for that.
At the same time, I know this joy can sometimes feel like a bright spot against a heavier backdrop. Many of our families are facing new challenges, especially with the recent news of the cancellation of SNAP benefits. Food insecurity is real and growing in our community, and that reality can weigh on us as educators who care so deeply for our students. And in turn, our students and their families are relying on us to be at our best.
I know things can feel hard for us, too. This work is HARD. Grades coming due, parents conferences on the horizon, conflicts with colleagues, long days that seem to stretch endlessly. In those moments, I hope we can all remember to lean into the joyful moments - the small wins, the laughter with students, the teamwork we build together. Those moments help us recenter, refill our cups, and remind us why this work matters so much.
Thank you for continuing to show up with heart, creativity, and compassion. The JOY you bring into this building every day makes a lasting difference.

TO DO THIS WEEK

Food Pantry. We have raised over $3200 this week!! What an incredible start to our fundraising efforts (see donation page link here). Many thanks to all who have made the pantry's success possible. To date, we have supplied eight families with pantry products and financial support and we have several additional requests to fulfill. Please do keep donating to the pantry and spread the word! We currently have a large order of toiletries being processed (purchased through school funding) but there's some items we still need.
  • All non-perishable food items: Shelf-stable milk, flour and spices, coffee and tea, baby food, granola bars, broth or bouillon cubes, instant oats, instant mashed potatoes, peanut butter, rice, pasta, etc. 
  • Sanitary napkins, tampons, diapers, baby formula
  • Women's clothing and shoes, winter jackets, gloves, hats

Check in on Enrollment. I know it seems like we are losing kids left and right and I want to make sure you're aware of where we stand financially. We started the year 50 students above projection - which is a huge amount of money that we were not expecting to have. Even with some students discharging we are still WAY over projections. Some of the discharges have also been pending for a long time. So, budgetarily, we are doing very well. If you have questions or concerns about the budget, please come see me.

Benchmarks are this week!   Our first round of benchmarks are here! Each exam will be one period in class → extra time kids (ENL & SWD) should receive extra time the day after benchmark in class if needed. Here's the HS schedule:
  • Monday - Social Studies, Wednesday - Math, Thursday - Science, Friday - ELA

Student Profiles are visible in OASIS. Click here to view students' academic, attendance, schedule... you name it, it's here - this is your one stop shop for all student info!

MP1 is coming to an end on 07NOV.   TO DO! Sync your grade books with OASIS. Then, you can use the NYC DOE student profile to look at student’s grades in other classes. Grades are due next Wednesday! Family conferences (remote) are on Thursday 20NOV in the evening 5-8PM and Friday 21NOV 11:50-2:50PM (this time frame includes your lunch and travel home time. You can decide to work from school or home).

Purchasing Requests. In an effort to better track and streamline purchasing, we ask that you fill in this form for all purchasing requests. You can find the form on our staff Google Classroom as well.

Week of Oct 13

                                                            

Volume: XIII
Issue: 8
October 13, 2025
SCHOOL LEADERSHIP MESSAGE
Thank you again for the truly exceptional work you've put in so far this fall. The foundation you have built is remarkable. We have a busy week ahead but here are some positives we must remember to hold on to:
  • Your commitment to student well-being is visible in every hallway and classroom. The warmth, joy, and love you foster create the safe, welcoming environments necessary for deep learning. And our kids are HAPPY!
  • We are seeing strong, cohesive implementation of our core instructional routines. The consistent use of strategies like Notice & Wonder and So Basically (Stronger and Clearer less-so) has already made student thinking dramatically more visible. This collective focus on making thought processes explicit is a powerful move that is elevating our practice.
These strengths are not just feel-good points, they are the essential, hard-won prerequisites for the next, crucial phase of our growth: maximizing student intellectual ownership.
We’ve identified that the default pattern of classroom talk is too often Teacher-Student-Teacher-Student (T-S-T-S). This pattern centralizes you, the teacher, as the only legitimate audience and validator of ideas. When you talk, you own the content; when students talk to each other, they own the content.
This week, stop being the mediator - let’s intentionally and systematically break the T-S-T-S loop. This is about more than just "Turn and Talk", it's about shifting the gravitational pull of the conversation from you to the room itself.
  • The Three-Second Rule: After a student responds, count to three before you speak. Use that space to cue another student, not to deliver your own affirmation or follow-up question, or to rephrase the student's share out.
  • The Peer Challenge: Instead of asking a student to summarize, ask them to challenge, extend, or apply the previous student's idea. Example: "Madison, I hear Aniyah's interpretation of the evidence. What's a potential counter-argument you see in the text, or how does Aniyah's point apply to the next section?"
The second challenge is a shift in mindset: Supports are tools for independence, not crutches for dependence. Universal scaffolds (like providing the same graphic organizer or giving procedural steps for every student) are often holding back the very students who are ready to take risks and think more complexly. We are inadvertently limiting productive struggle.
This week - differentiate your supports - starting with zero!
Moving forward, our instructional focus is on scaffold removal. We are moving from a default of providing support to a deliberate practice of withholding it until a diagnostic need is evident.
  1. Start with "Naked" Tasks: Present the complex task first without the whole-class graphic organizers, pre-filled notes, or extensive procedural steps. Let students engage with the complexity.
  2. Observe and Diagnose: Look for which students immediately jump into the task and which ones are clearly stuck.
  3. Target and Differentiate: Only deploy the scaffold after you see a student genuinely needs it. For example, give a sentence starter only to the two students who are staring blankly, and give the graphic organizer only to the small group that is struggling with organization.
This strategic removal of universal supports is the only way to build intellectual stamina and ensure every student experiences the cognitive lift they need.

TO DO THIS WEEK

PPO. This Wednesday, we will be having our first PPO (Principal Performance Observation) with Dr. Buffie Whitfield, who is the Executive Director of School Support & Operations in Superintendent Fred Walsh's office. Teachers who are up for tenure SHOULD EXPECT A CLASS VISIT! 

In preparation for the visit you should be working on:
  • Linking all lesson plans into your pacing guides 
  • Making sure your lessons center student thinking (i.e. students should be doing the lion's share of the work for the majority of the period - there shouldn't be any stretch of time longer than 2-3 minutes where kids are listening passively.  They should be thinking, writing, talking, or discussing as much as possible).  Please be super cognizant and shorten the amount of time you are talking and inadvertently doing the thinking for the kids.  Some of the most difficult teacher moves is waiting in that awkward silent space while kids struggle.  HINT:  Narrate what you're doing to the kids in place of doing the thinking FOR them. It's ok to say, "I want you to try to try this on your own...so, I'm going to wait...or I want you to ask others first... or I want you to try on your own"...or whatever feels good for you to say!
  • Ensuring unnecessary scaffolds are removed so that all students are engaged in critical thinking throughout your lesson. HINT: Before you decide that they cannot do XYZ...be the scientist!  Test to see what they CAN do, and put the scaffolds on the back burner.  Have the scaffolds in your back pocket IF they flounder.  Again, narrate what you're doing!  It will definitely feel risky, but you all CAN manage a classroom well!  The kids trust you.  Now, it's time for you to trust them to take bigger, intellectual risks!  For example, "We're gonna try something different today.. I want you to do....on your own...without (whatever scaffold you've been using)."  Just pull out a piece of paper/post it whatever...let them try!

Buffie ultimately will decide who we see but we will suggest this draft agenda.

Grades in Google Classrooms.  We are in our 6th week of classes, and all classes should DEFINITELY have some graded work in Google Classrooms.  Please make sure you are uploading grades into your Google Classroom gradebooks AND make sure you are also being super clear with kids about progress in your class.  The end of the marking period is only a month away, and unless you are mindful now, you will be setting yourself up for a tough spot with kids before you know it.  Transparency, communication, and support are key to ensuring your kids thrive.  So please, make the time to attend to your grades and make sure kids know that they are in your Google Classrooms.  This week's outreach will be focused on kicking off communications home with families around student performance (this will be the focus for the next few weeks).  So, please, make sure you're ready to communicate clearly.

SDC is Starting. The School Development Committee is starting back up. Join us to plan PDs (we will focus on Student-led IEP planning) monthly at 7:45am on the third Thursday of the month in room 301.
