ETR is addressing school connectedness through the variety of clubs, sports, and mentorships by/with teachers. Through the addtion of rigor in the classroom, expectations are being explained and taken to a higher level.
Applying fair and consistent disciplinary policies that are collectively agreed upon and enforced is seen through the posting in the student handbook and on the district website.
One way ETR addresses school connectedness is by offering various extracurricular activities for students. Students can choose an activity that they are interested in and be a part of that club. A club that is sponsored by Rebbie and myself is the FCS Club. This club is open to any student in grades 5-8 and allows students to participate in cooking and healthy eating activities.
I think that ETR addresses school connectedness by encouraging teachers to get to know their students. I also think that because administration is involved in the students success at all levels, it shows that the students that they are wanted and valued at school. It is clear at ETR that high academic standards are set and provided for all students.
In my classroom, I try to encourage cooperative learning as much as possible. I also try to help the students feel like they belong by showing that I care about their well being both in school and at home.
billk said connections of students is a big part of keeping students busy. clubs and sports activities are basic forms for students connecting. I believe when teachers work with students for extra help, helping in the classroom creates a positives attitude for students..
teachers and administrators are the backbone of school enforcement
Question 1 ETR as well as the district as a whole has done a very good job connecting to the students. There are many clubs and activities that are available for student’s individual interests. At ETR students that appear to be “disconnecting” are often identified by teachers through Stat, or Guidance, and reconnected through meetings during the school day by being pulled from class or placed in discussion groups during lunch.
Question 2 We do a lot of group activities and cooperative learning activities in Tech Ed
In the few years that we've been talking about student connectedness at ETR, there have been many new activities/clubs established which have allowed students with a variety of interests to connect with each other and teachers. In my classroom, I try to establish a positive environment with mutual respect as a main theme. I also try to provide many cooperative activities to promote teamwork and it also breaks down the social isolation, as discussed in the article.
