Thank you Samantha, You were an amazing support for all of us as we went through this as a family.
H. worked harder than he had ever had to work. He persisted and we watched him work through so MUCH math. I couldn't do any of it but he just kept solving more and
more problems.
You responded quickly to all of our emails and calls and we felt that we were working with someone committed to our son's success.
This was a difficult time for H having had a kidney transplant. He was in the hospital when the school year started so it was a slow start for him.
There were many doctor's visits, changes in medication and some very challenging health situations for H. He worked very hard despite
not feeling well and having to do the entire semester online.
Thank you too for working with us as he got towards the end and for your being available to open the review the minute he got to it and then the midterm and again the final exam. You responded so well to ALL of our requests and sent encouraging messages throughout this time.
You helped H stay engaged as well.
We greatly appreciate your support. You helped make a very difficult time better by being on his side. H will be SO happy to see his final grade today and know that
as difficult as it was he finished.

Good morning Ms. Moore-Valentine,
First, I want to say thank you so much for spending such a significant amount of time on the phone with me yesterday afternoon as we talked through the challenges our students are having and the solutions you suggested.  I would also like to add that your continued communication has been a tremendous help, even though you only serve two of our 40 students (not counting the one added last week).  Most of all, I appreciate your communication with our students as well as parents, as that relationship is what will ultimately have the most impact on how much work a student puts out.

Good morning Van,
I hope you are doing well.
First, I want to send a special message of acknowledgement regarding one of your teachers - Ms. Samantha Moore-Valentine.  She has done a tremendous job in reviewing and matching the NC standards to the course curriculum for our math students and has continuously communicated every step of the way.  She has also shown a lot of patience for my many questions and has been extremely helpful in looking at issues from the students' perspective.  The fact that she is the only teacher I have heard from following the email I sent last week speaks even more to her support and personal attentiveness.

Thank you so much for your help!! Zero excuses remain! Fingers are crossed, consequences have been clearly defined, a fire has been lit under my lovely daughter's you-know-where, and last year's $40/hour math tutor has agreed to be on call nights & weekends for the next 10 days at $50/hr.! Hoping for a small miracle and a winning lottery ticket!

Take care,Beth :)

Ah Samantha! Thank you for your persistence! Honestly, I have had some issues with SIS today too! So happy it’s worked out. Now you can take a breather!

Have a fantastic day! J

Hello how are you?  I am one of the virtual math instructors and i wanted to reach out to you in regards to a few students that have not begin and they are at 6weeks into the course.  Have you had any success with these students or have they been dropped.  I want to make sure I mark them correctly in the SIS.

W. R 3:57 PM:Hi Samantha, thank you for reaching out. Some of those names look familiar so if you don't mind, give me a few to look over my notes and I can give you an update.

Samantha Moore-Valentine 3:58 PM:ok thank you so much i try to work with the mentors and counselors so we know whats worked and what hasn't.  Thank you so much!!

W. R. 3:58 PM:Of course. Sometimes it gets tough with the work load but I think that would be ideal that we can all work together as much as possible.

Samantha Moore-Valentine 4:00 PM:of course so that we have a united front when working with the students and parents also. should you need anything i share my notes and communication regularly.thanks contact me anytime should you have a question or need anything from me!

W R 4:02 PM:Thank you for that Samantha

Samantha,

Thank you so much for this information; it is truly an unfortunate and deeply painful situation made worse through email reminders.

I will make sure to forward to my Regional Supervisor.

Thank so much Samantha for your commitment and care,

Do you know how to edit a recorded BB session?  I gave a Virtual Field Trip and want to send it to students but it shows up with other student sessions I conducted earlier that day.  I want to delete those and just use the portion that contains the field trip.

Samantha,
I was wondering if you could help me.  I am working on the details of my communication and cleaning up my files, etc.
I have changed my signature as instructed awhile ago to what you see below.  In the SIS when I click on signature I do not see the little letter or the phone.  Instead I see a ? and another ?.  How do I fix that?

Hi Samantha, I really appreciate you working with K. throughout this course especially this past weekend. It was very stressful with her volleyball tournament schedule and the time frame she had available to take the final test. She was exhausted from being on court for 8-10 hours and I wanted to say thank you for unlocking the exam on Sunday. She managed to make a B, but she did not feel like she learned anything. She was disappointed because she has maintained A Honor roll throughout middle school and this class has for the first time given her a B. Again, thank you so much for everything.

Hello Samantha, Thank you so much for speaking with me earlier today about Edgenuity concerns with my students at Westerly Hills Academy. As I stated, I am working diligently with my students to ensure they are overly prepared and understanding of the Math 1 content. Please advise me of any thoughts, ideas, and suggestions to help them to be successful.

Thank you Ms. Valentine, after reading the below instruction I now know how to go about in Edgenuity. And finally see B's and performances. Thanks for the detailed information. Appreciate your help on guiding us to understand the system better. Thanks you.

Thank you for your time, and knowledge regarding Isaac. It is very encouraging to talk with a knowledgeable teacher both in math and special education. I look forward to working with you. Thank you.

ELearning Advisor/Mentor/Technology Mallard Creek High School, a CMS School: Communication - I mentioned how much I appreciate your continuous communication, especially directly to students. I expressed that ours is a fairly large program (#2 or 3 in our school district), ranging between 150 and 200 students per semester (approximately 10% on Edgenuity). This includes four full lab periods (20+/- students each), and the rest work strictly from home. Those students who work from home are the hardest to track down and connect with during the school day, so direct communication with the teacher is critical. Louise M. Carte

Thank you so much. This is great information. As you can see, L. is really struggling with getting started with his Math. He instead is trying to work on other classes instead, but I've told him he HAS to work on Math. I just want to make sure he doesn't fail or get behind. So, I might be talking to you a lot if that's ok. Have a great weekend.

Hey Samantha, I spoke with my supervisor and she wanted me to create a video that motivates students to return after spring break.  I told her that I would like for you to help.  Would you like to help me compose a possible 30 second or 1-minute video for our students? I really want you to collaborate with me on the piece.  I send an advance thanks.Best regards,

Good evening, Ms. Moore. Thank you for your introductory email. I am looking forward to this year for my daughter, T. S. She had a few issues with Math last year in 9th grade, and did not pass, so I believe she is in credit recovery. I am hoping for her to realize that math is as much a course of effort as it is a course of ability, which means without effort, you can't improve ability.
Thank you for your email. I noticed you are from Augusta, GA. My wife, T. stepmom, is also from Augusta, GA and graduated from Hephzibah High School. We now reside in Charlotte, NC. My daughter and I are from the Washington, DC area and have been in Charlotte for about three years now.
I look forward to this school year and the experience she has with eLearning. My phone number, address, and email are included at the bottom of this email. If you ever have any issues or concerns and need to communicate in a faster-than-typical manner, feel free to contact me at any of the following sources, any time!

Good afternoon Ms. Moore,
I am enjoying your online math class. I have a "silly" question to ask you, this is an honors pre-Calc class correct? The reason I ask is I don't see it on the website coded as honors.
Thank you,

"I wanted to apologize for being behind in my edgenuity course. I had two major projects due this week for two other classes, which was my primary focus. I will try to catch up with work soon. Thank you for being understanding."

Walking the walk means that you are transparent in everything that you do. Not many people are who they are inthe class as they are outside the class. Many instructors are trying to find balance. so for me I try to make sure that If i am experiencing difficulty I say it. If I need help, I look for solutions. As a team we should feel confident in our sharing of what worked and what did not. With our students they need to know what our roles are and YES we all work together from the teachers to the supervisors. We can learn from each other and every body at Edgenuity is an asset or you would not be here. Below is an example of communication that fosters growth, commitment and communication.

# data[].attributes.body
To be one team means that when we see our co worker failing we spring into action and assist. If there is something we have knowledge about and can provide the input then do it. Do it with selfless intent and do it from the heart. I have completed tasks that were outside of the PT range, I have provided weekly tips for even counselors at the school level to assist them so they can assist me. I have had colleague ask me to provide even small weekly technology input to assist outside of the mathematics courses. To be One means that as virtual instructor you are willing to roll up your sleeves and call a few counselors, email someone else, hey technical support knows my name very well. I say this to say as we work to help one we help all. we are a group and we are here to serve a greater purpose THE STUDENTS

# data[].attributes.body
Here at Edgenuity we are creating the future every time we go over and beyond to search for new innovations, revamp a template, conduct a PD or create a new task to assist with learning. I started preparing with the end in mind How by using tools such as Blackboard Session plan. I can create in the future now a session with all the things to assist a student transitioning into a live tutoring session. I love it and can't wait to share with my colleagues. I am able to set up rooms for each subject in advance while adding separate questions for engagement.

# data[].attributes.body
When i show my fire I picture the start of the flame. Yes I am and desire to be the catalyst for change in the lives of our students. why? Because parents are depending on us to help create, shape and mold their BEST. regardless of the students background, strengths or weaknesses parents send their BEST. So for me I show my fire by looking for ways to engage and make learning math fun. I don't want you to be the next mathematician, but i want you to try!
