Professional Development HW (Reminder)
Your homework for the December 12th staff PD is to select one academic word from DOK 3 and 4 and be prepared to discuss strategies used in class to support these terms.  You may access the DOK resource folder that includes the DOK PD Template that was completed by each department at the following link:
Life Space Crisis Intervention – Spring Training
LSCI is a six day course designed to train teachers to teach students better ways to respond to future stressful events.  The training is free and can be taken for P Credit; Professional Development Hours; or Training rate for teachers, guidance counselors, and social workers.  There is a Spring Cohort held at Marta Valle High School in the Lower East Side: March 14, 21, 28; April 18; 25; May 2.  If you are interested please email Mr. Liu (dliu@pablonerudaacademy.org) indicating your interest and if you want to take the training for P credit; Professional Development hours; or be paid training rate.
Professional Development Opportunity
Our campus librarian has secured a training program for high school teachers that offers primary sources, informational texts, and visual history testimony from witnesses to help teach about the Holocaust and address academic standards.  While this is geared toward Social Studies and English Teachers, any teacher is welcome to attend.  Upon completion of the PD, you will receive free access to numerous resources.  Please let Mr. Liu (dliu@pablonerudaacademy.org) know by Wednesday, November 26th if you are interested so we can reserve a spot for you.  The training will take place on a Monday in December or January after school.
Team Goal Check-In
We will be restarting the Team Goal Check-In form monthly to ensure that Admin can streamline support to teams when needed.  If you are a leader of one of our many teams at PNA please submit your monthly check-in for the month of November at the following link: https://docs.google.com/a/pablonerudaacademy.org/spreadsheet/viewform?usp=drive_web&formkey=dHpLbEF0ekxrSTVTUW82bHlPUmduQ0E6MQ#gid=0
Campus Announcements
Office of School Food and Nutrition
As of this week the cafeteria will no longer offer food for sale to staff for either Breakfast or Lunch.
Custodians
If an unforeseen incident requires you to leave your vehicle overnight in the parking lot, please inform an administrator so that custodians do not have to search the building for you, before locking down the building.
Holiday Displays
Please be aware of and be sensitive to the significance of seasonal observances and religious holidays as we work to foster mutual understanding and respect for our school’s diverse religious, racial, ethnic and cultural heritages. The Constitution prohibits a school system from endorsing or promoting a particular religion or belief system.
