Thank You Chris and Katie for having everyone use the same platform, TEAMS was frustrating at times, but it made it a lot easier for parents with multiple kids.

I think that they did an amazing job supporting their students, and they also helped the other teachers support these students as well.

Everyone made it work in whatever way they could. It looked different for a lot of people and that was OK.

# data[].attributes.body
We focused on essentials in classes
We reached out to families that don't normally respond well to us
We did right by our Seniors-- they were showered with support.
Our pods were our lifeline
We greatly shifted from a static model of tech integration into being thrown in the fire-- sometimes it's the best way to push forward with integration

# data[].attributes.body
We were nice to one another. We were understanding, helpful. We realized that people have bad and good days. We knew we were in this together. The negativity was minimal in my world. and... WE WORKED HARD.

# data[].attributes.body
The fact that every teacher called multiple students each week was great. Even if some students did not do a lot of work, knowing that their teachers cared was important. Many students missed school and people so this was important for their social emotional health.

Assisting ALL students with their specific needs - emotional, food, technology, etc.

Tech did awesome with having a ton of issues to solve from hundreds of kids (Yay for adding Chrissie Barr!!), parents commented that we were always present and I think that helped our image with the community

I had really awesome results from my final projects. The students were doing great applying the knowledge that we learned in the classroom and applying it to real life situations and that made me happy!! :)

social emotional needs!! We made sure that EVERY student had a teacher to check in with them and make sure everything was okay, and that we are here for THEM

We were able to create curriculums that we could work with throughout the closure.

We contacted students to let them know we were there for them in the best way that we could.

We did not give up even when the expectations continued to change.

# data[].attributes.body
We tried to prioritize the social emotional needs of kids over academics.  We had an open line of communication on what was working and what wasn't.  We were well supported by admin and everyone did everything in their power to make this work and to just get through it all.  We understood that this was new territory.

# data[].attributes.headline
Proved just how important teachers really are.  Some parents gained a greater appreciation for what we do on a daily basis.

All students using the same platform (Teams). It was annoying at first to have to switch over, but I agreed that it made it much easier for the students to only need to learn one platform.

stretched our limits to reach students through text, email, zoom, teams, and recorded videos.

We were all open to new approaches, new methods, and new ideas. Despite many of us feeling overwhelmed, it felt like we turned to each other for guidance/support rather than just suffer in silence. It was refreshing to feel comfortable with failure.

I appreciated my colleagues making videos for us slow tech people who didn't know what to do. I appreciate Katie and Chris for answering my emails by the end of the day and answering them thoroughly. I appreciate CRCS as a community. I could NOT have done any of this without my team who is like family.

1.I think the daily rebel express show was awesome outlet for information that other schools didnt have.     2. I think it really helped some teachers understand the home life of students in a different way than before.

Wen reflecting on this experience, I think of two things that went really well throughout the process. First, the grouping of staff into Pods was an excellent idea. It allowed for effective communication to take place so that nobody was left behind or lost. We helped each other out in many cases as well. Second, the fact that we put the students first was the best thing we could have done as a school.

# data[].attributes.body
We prioritized social and emotional above academics.
We made school possible for students without internet or with bad internet by providing and delivering paper copies.
We stayed connected as a staff using pods.
We recognized teacher and student achievements with senior celebrations, birthday shoutouts on twitter and rebel express show, we celebrated tenure and retirement using zoom.
We kept communication with parents open.

# data[].attributes.headline
Keeping in contact with students and parents was effective, and I felt I had some real nice conversation with some parents. It made me feel good when they would say something nice, agree on something. Not all conversations were positive, but parents seemed to really like that. Also I got to know some real nice people in the process.

Teamwork.
There was flexibility for everyone's schedule.
You didn't micromanage us.
You delegated by creating pods.
Put students first.
Kept smiling and laughing.
Provided ways for us to interact socially and to honor our new and retiring employees.

# data[].attributes.body
My pod was amazing and so supportive, collaborative, positive, and just in it together. I can’t say enough how helpful it was to still feel connected and like we were all helping each other reach the same goal- helping our kids on all levels during a really hard time.

-When I would reach out through text you both were good at getting back to me whether it was a phone call or a text.
- I could always tell that you guys were doing the best you were capable given the circumstances. None of this was easy and I cannot imagine being an administrator at this time.

Continued practice of meeting regularly with MS Teams/Pods helped to keep communication flowing within the team.

We had almost no advance notice that we were going to be switching to online learning. In a matter of days, I watched as all of the teachers switched from the classroom learning they had already planned to an online curriculum. Teachers showed they were able to think on their feet and be creative in meeting students’ needs.

# data[].attributes.body
We maintained very free, open, and thorough communication between faculty, staff, admin, parents and students - even though not all were willing/able to do likewise. This made for as smooth a process as was reasonable to expect. This was new to all of us so there’s a learning curve to be had.

# data[].attributes.headline
I was in the 12th grade pod and we worked great all together.  We met at least once a week to discuss our students.  If we had any concerns about a student we would talk about it together.  We had great communication.

I think we tried harder than ever to show kids we cared. We reached out in every way possible that we were allowed. I think as a district I saw us try to do what we thought was best for the students as often as possible within the confines of what we were and are allowed to do. We continually tried to help the kids and families whether they like it or not.

# data[].attributes.headline
It was nice getting to know my students in a different way.  They all seemed to be more open when we talked on the phone, texted, or zoomed.  I was truly surprised how some kids enjoyed the time that we had together.

Made Zooms as fun as they can be!
Called parents to check in on their mental health and fielded all their questions.
Available to kids when they needed us (Sometimes frustrating when it’s 6 on a Friday😂)
Compassionate and understanding.
I wrote hand written thank yous to my parents and kids that I called every week. Parents loved this and when I said thank you for all that they did. They remembered we were human too!
