The trend of comments in the column regarding current implementation, especially in terms of welcoming students/families.

# data[].attributes.body
I am encouraged by the conversations that are happening across panels and portfolios - it will be important to continue these conversations and develop specific next steps/action plans.

The conversations and work behind the BIPSA and how it has provided a strong direction/vision and knowing that we continue to next steps and can refine/tweak - but do feel we 'missed' the mark in areas and the explicitness to support our system in the uncovering, recognizing, naming which needs to happen to move forward and support our most marginalized students

# data[].attributes.body
invigorated about the challenge and the need to bring perspectives/voices across portfolios to continue digging deeper into/reflecting upon and revising our BIPSA which then transfers to the SIPSA and what this work can/will/should look like next year

# data[].attributes.body
Encouraged by all the work done to date to support ELLs, their teachers and administrators.

How do we archive all pertinent information in one space for educators and/or admin, so it is accessible, comprehensive but not overwhelming.  This is a much bigger conversation than just ELL!!

# data[].attributes.body
Excited about the conversation. There is an urgency to this work and it feels like we are really start to dig into it in a meaningful way.

# data[].attributes.body
Maybe not surprise but reminder - the various aspects to consider and intentionality required through several aspects/lenses

# data[].attributes.body
Not so much discouraged but wonder with all that we have in place so far to support ELLs, teachers and administrators how can we continue to build capacity for all teachers? What would be the most "bang for your buck"? Need to spread the understanding to all teachers in all content areas. As with STEP, do teachers only see it as something used in language/English class?

What is VISA ELLs ?

# data[].attributes.body
Next steps in implementation is a team effort, all voices/eyes are in to support

# data[].attributes.body
Explicitness of these considerations to support our conversations - having the big ideas to guide us - feel in the past we were 'grasping' - this helps to provide the path/chart

# data[].attributes.body
Still wonder how we can help support ELL students and their families when they choose FI - seems ELL funding is not for ELL FI

# data[].attributes.body
That we haven't gained as much traction with STEP.

# data[].attributes.body
A wondering - supporting capacity building and learning beyond teachers and admin continues to be an area I grapple with.

# data[].attributes.body
Much of what is included in documents supporting ELLs is said to be just "good teaching". Thinking of spread and sustainability, where are the opportunities to provide learning where teachers can see it applicable to all students in all content areas?

# data[].attributes.body
That only one policy item for consideration references the other needs of students with needs other than language.
