New partnership with more school based therapists at the start of the school year. Some parents and guardians have a stigma about their child/student receiving services.
Need more counselors at the elementary level.  One is not adequate.  
Equity in accessing therapists who are diverse. ]]> 2022-06-07 19:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2213996756 susannacerrato https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2213996801 (e.g. Zone of Regulation) so that educators across the district share a common language, which helps educators support and problem solve with each other, but also offers students the support of common language as they move up through the grades and into new buildings.]]> 2022-06-07 19:00:04 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2213996801 https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2213997725 Current State: The goal is to have an alternative program for 7-12 grade students. Two community centers, Eddington and Stephen's Lee, have volunteered their space. We need to be very intentional with the staff for these programs. These people need to be trauma informed and trained. Our mental health staff are overworked. We need more positions funded. Therapy needs to be in school during the day. Family Pres. , Your Next Chapter, MAHEC, and two more agencies will be working with our students in house as MOU. This shouldn't cost the ACS anything but those agencies are also understaffed. ]]> 2022-06-07 19:01:15 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2213997725 susannacerrato https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214003293 Inconsistent approaches across the district; individual schools making their own choices of approaches, rather than district-wide decided approaches
A dearth of training for how to implement preemptive SEL approaches]]> 2022-06-07 19:07:40 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214003293 https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214005736 We need to replace our student support specialists that resigned mid-year.  We need to pay them a living wage.  We need someone to work with the "high flyers".  
We need a re-entrance policy when students have been hospitalized for mental health reasons.  A "Handle with Care" alert will let teachers know when a student is in crisis.  ]]> 2022-06-07 19:10:07 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214005736 https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214006904 We need, K-12, district-wide or school-wide SEL curriculum with time for SEL lessons AND we need to help teachers learn to layer in SEL strategies in EVERY lesson]]> 2022-06-07 19:11:21 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214006904 https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214010431 How do we help teachers know what doing well with SEL looks like in ACS?]]> 2022-06-07 19:15:33 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214010431 https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214010813 Need a support specialists in each building.

Using student data from that school to determine what the reset room looks like at that school.
Reset room at each school & finding the space.
Sanctuary space for high school students.
Rewrite student support specialists job description with defined role, and re-evaluate pay scale.
Alternative setting/opportunity for students K-12
Day treatment K-12 that teaches students how to be in a classroom
Alternate to suspension
Behavioral classrooms at the elementary level.
Norm some behavior expectations across classrooms.
See Something, Say Something app needs to be pushed out better.

2) Decide what is important to us as a district for 2023 and beyond.  Are we adapting? Are we fighting the right battles?
3) Consider all students and where they can learn best such as alternative learning sites, programs, etc.  Respect students as individual learners that require smaller settings/more supports/learning preferences/etc.  Sometimes academics are not the most important need at that moment but being mindful of academic equity.
4) Work together to create a culture where students find relevant academics and culturally responsive staff. ]]> 2022-06-07 19:16:13 UTC https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214010945 https://padlet.com/matt_whiteside/2x8dkkjukhf6adh5/wish/2214011065 Clearly defined SEL lessons that fall under tier 1, tier 2, tier 3 and identify specific people to implement the core/supplementary/intensive lessons to which students based on need (based on data).
