III.A. Work-based learning III.B. Americanism III.C. AQUESTT
Discussion:
Work-based learning-Mr. Brokaw shared this opportunity for students to narrow down a career by connecting with a wide range of employers in the community. Two Medical Pathfinder students were invited to share their experience and valued the specialists perspectives. Approximately 120 students have got to job shadow, resulting in 11 field trips this year. There are 8 students in the work-based learning program that start late or leave school early for their jobs. Businesses are welcome to volunteer for this program to serve our students.
Americanism-Mrs. Kelley and Mr. Stone reflected on committee visits at the Elementary and the Jr/Sr High. Compliments to both buildings for applying education surrounding our history early and often, to include daily announcements and annual programs that involve our community. AQUESTT-Mrs. Bergmeyer explained the data from our assessments, requirements from the state, and our future goals. Significant changes and scores/averages were shared and overall, we are seeing an increase in proficiency from our students. Conestoga is classified as "Great" in all areas! |
