Team,
Any students who may be interested in enrolling into a Social Justice class next semester must contact their counselor immediately. If you know of any students you believe would enjoy this, please let them know about this opportunity.
Intro to Racial Equity and Social Justice explores the foundations of big concepts like power, identity, and authority that play various roles in our daily lives. In addition to examining the present, we’ll look into the past to deepen our understanding of how we came be here, in this place; this now, where racial equity is again centered in our national conversations. In doing so, we’ll discover some ways that we might individually and collectively make a difference in the pursuit of social justice while also recognizing that learning truly is power.

A 15 minute opportunity to speak to me about anything…. Questions, concerns, meal choices for Thanksgiving….. anything.
As it relates some other pressing questions:
Now, when it is time to move forward with this, if you have non-school aged children, you must start working out any day care needs. If you have school aged children who are working remotely, you may bring them to your classroom, under your supervision at all times, and following all health and safety guidelines. (Note: this includes walking them to the bathroom)
Mrs. Moore will hold office hours next week to discuss your specific individual and departmental needs as we move toward the end of the 2nd nine weeks. Be on the lookout for an email.
The Nearpod Google images
feature in Nearpod will be disabled.
Are there any limitations
I need to keep in mind once this feature has been disabled?
- Note
that lesson codes for student-paced Nearpods that have already been
generated will keep Google Image Search - disabling Google Image Search
will only work for newly-generated Codes and
lessons.
- Editing
a Nearpod that has a student-paced code generated already will remove the
code.
- Teachers
will still see the Google Image search option for Collaborate on
sessions they launch, but if they switch to student view, they’ll see that
students won’t see the Google Image Search option
What happens when Google Image
search is disabled?
- Students
will not be able to search Google Images in "Draw It and
Collaborate" responses. However, they’ll still be able to upload
images.
Does this impact Google Search in a web
browser?
No. Students will be able to Google Search, including searching Google Images, in a normal web browser. GCS filters for student safety apply to these searches
