JEDI Book Club

Dear NIS Community,

We are excited to announce the launch of the JEDI Book Club!

Our first book is Growing Up in Transit by Danau Tanu.

Join us as we explore themes of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion through this insightful work.

Please find the PDF document of the first 3 chapters attached.

We look forward to engaging conversations and shared learning experiences with you all!

CPOMS update

You can now search students by either students’ formal first name or preferred name on CPOMS.

Thanks to Cindy who made this possible. Hip hip HOORAY!

Learning in the HUB

 

We’re excited to see different groups using the HUB! To keep the momentum from our PLD days, we’ve made some updates effective Monday, November 11, 2024.

Please review the Learning in the HUB guide with your students and encourage them to explore less familiar areas (e.g., Grades 4-5 on the second and third floors, Grades 6-10 on the third floor and back area of the first floor). BTT teachers should reinforce the “Purposeful, Respectful, Responsible” principles by navigating these spaces.

I’ll discuss these new guidelines with parents at Coffee Morning on Wednesday, emphasizing those principles as well.

We look forward to continued learning in the HUB. Your ideas and feedback are valuable, so please share them using this open form.
