I think we tried a lot of different things this year to get us to interact with each other, especially with those we don't see or interact with regularly. Something has felt slightly off in terms of staff-staff interactions, and I cannot put my finger on what it is, but I'm hoping through the continuation of building strong Crews building wide, we can figure it out and it will take care of itself.

Student Crew (Classrooms) Vision and Goals

# data[].attributes.body
Not having a Crew of my own (a 25-minute block of time), I can only speak to brief conversations I have had in my classrooms. I feel that when I have mentioned things like "Didn't you cover this/that in Crew?" they knew what I was talking about, so I feel like we were making positive steps.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm not sure if attendance has improved, but I know that we still need to find ways to get students excited for Crew time. I'm still hearing a lot of students not want to go because they don't understand the point.

# data[].attributes.body
I think finding a way for adults to get together in ways outside of school and school-like activities would be great, taking time into consideration.

# data[].attributes.body
Student voice in Circle activities.

# data[].attributes.body
How can we include non-Crew time teachers in activities more?

# data[].attributes.body
Sense of community, joy, safe, and conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
A safe place to be themselves, open up, and have a place they are excited to go to everyday.

# data[].attributes.body
It will impact school culture by giving more lessons on how to regulate our emotions. It will also allow students safe spaces to share out more and be themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
More opportunities to get together and see each other outside of just another teacher. That way we might feel more comfortable going and asking others for help because they know they won't get judged.

# data[].attributes.body
How can we get data and feedback to make sure all staff are using it and getting the most out of it. We have the panarama survey, but I think we should have a more frequent check in system.

# data[].attributes.body
Building a community and sense of belonging with all students and staff. School will become a safe space for students and staff.

# data[].attributes.body
Increase student role in crew and how those roles than translate to other classes

# data[].attributes.body
Come up with a way to Monitor crew to make sure that it is 1. Being attempted 2. Continually working to improve. 3. To get student data

# data[].attributes.body
Multiple staff requests have been made to use some of this time with students to support development of tech-literacy skills. Ideas shared include: AI-tools and their use, basics in Word (dbl spacing, font choice, indenting, etc), Powerpoint tools (beyond the basic slide format and typing), citing sources that aren't "google."

# data[].attributes.body
Everyone feels valued. The climate promotes collaboration. We are all committed to doing what is in the best interest of our students.

# data[].attributes.body
Crew brings students joy. They look forward to coming to school every day, in part, because of Crew. The camaraderie and support of their Crew mates encourages them to do their best academically and socially.

# data[].attributes.body
Staff should feel valued and seen/heard. Able to share ideas and suggestions without being judged.

# data[].attributes.body
I would want students to know that Crew is a place where they belong.

# data[].attributes.body
We hope that implementing new ideas in Crew, content and Applied Core, we help fortify our whole team as the Pride of Des Moines.

# data[].attributes.body
Having ways to invite colleagues to be a part of outside events (Civic Center, Farmer's Market, concert at the Well, etc) would be an awesome way to build our Staff Crew.

# data[].attributes.body
Having 28ish students makes it difficult to do many of the activities with authenticity from students. I feel that I'm managing behaviors more than building them.

# data[].attributes.body
Our daily morning meeting at the G is a great foundation for our CREW visions and goals becoming a reality. I would hope that announcements presented at the G are also sent via email to be inclusive for all, regardless of hearing challenges, memory challenges, and absences. I would also hope that the announcements made are worthwhile for the time and place.

# data[].attributes.body
CREW can sometimes take backseat to the to the other classes we teach. Similarly, CREW PD can also take a backseat to other important PD we receive.

# data[].attributes.body
It would be so cool for students to have a part in planning what we receive on PowerPoint to do in CREW.

Also I want to get to a place where students in my CREW are a part of the CREW process and it is less clear who is the leader and who is the learner.

# data[].attributes.body
Add more subjects assisted in crew to include skills in which our students show need for growth. For example, we could intentionally teach how to use some of the software our district provides. Students should learn how to use spellcheck and grammer check in Microsoft Word or pick up skills Excel or other areas. I would be willing to develop lessons for once a week, depending on how Crew looks in 25-26.

# data[].attributes.body
Our staff meetings have helped build collaboration between staff members. I don't think all staff committed to CREW because not all staff followed the CREW plans.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe in the vision and goals of CREW but I don't know if what we did has students buying into it.

# data[].attributes.body
We want all students to feel they belong and have the tools to feel successful in our school socially. A kind environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Instead of using Wayfinder in order, do lessons when they are needed. We pulled bullying lessons when we saw the need for them in 6th grade. Team selecting and developing activities. Also the students felt like it was just something to do. The circle affirmations seemed to go to long and without a purpose.

# data[].attributes.body
It is hard to teach some of the topics in Wayfinder without them being authentic to the students. If we incorporate reading, this is a way to develop empathy by the choice of stories selected. Students connected with the taco story. Middle Schoolers are very me oriented. I also think we need more team building activities in CREW.

# data[].attributes.body
I know some staff feel the meeting at the G is getting very long so what we do there needs to be short and specific. Maybe going to corners. (Last weekend, if you participated/attended an athletic event go here and share, a concert/music activity, an outdoor activity, and quiet time/indoor activity. Go to a corner if you are feeling stressed, ready to go, tired etc.) and find someone to talk to for a set timer of 2 min. Then we can follow up with that person the next morning if we see a staff member in need.

# data[].attributes.body
We want students to embrace diversity, build relationships, encourage acceptance and provide a space for leaders to grow.

# data[].attributes.body
It is my vision that the "circle up" is the time that staff look forward to each day and it is the community that is cultivated to support and honor our collective commitments.

I would love to see the joy of collaboration and community to spill over into PLC spaces and of course, in the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I hope they mention the joy and connectedness they feel to one another. I hope they mention that it's part of the best part of coming to school each day. I hope they mention the safety that exists in those spaces. I hope the felt accountability to be scholars in that space.

I hope to see/hear connection, accountability, joy, attentiveness to one another, crucial conversations when needed
