We are engaging in a collaborative design process to imagine what’s possible for Felicita. Our ReDesign team will work with our entire community to elevate and build upon our strengths. We will consider how to design our school to ensure every learner cultivates the knowledge, skills and mindsets of the EUSD Learner Profile.
We will be meeting as a ReDesign Team this year over 4 full days, with the goal of proposing our ideas in May. We want your feedback and we want you to elevate your voice. Your input is critical to this process! If you have not provided feedback yet, it is not too late to do so. We will still be conducting interviews throughout this process to inform our path. Our focus is to design “with” all stakeholders, not “for” all stakeholders.
In addition to the Discovery Day last week, our ReDesign Team met this week to spend time looking at the Framework for the Future and Learner Profiles, looking at the work we are already doing, and connecting it to where we want to go.
So far, the data trending for our school from various stakeholders include:
Parents: Pleased with communication, want more traffic safety, want real-world learning, and want more science.
Students: Want more science, art, better playgrounds, and real-world learning experiences.
Staff: Believe connections to real-life learning is important, change is necessary, and value the importance of a learner centered approach.
The next step in the process will be for the ReDesign Team to conduct school visits to see how other schools bring learning to life and determine how to implement and transform those ideas to meet the needs of our school.
We will continue to keep you updated on our school redesign journey as it unfolds!
