The Blair staff focused our Our School Story during their last Professional Development Day.  They dug deep and reflected on student samples to try and determine next best steps for enhancing our students understanding of their identity and their belonging to community.

Our School Story revisited

• Sharing of the history of our school story

Sharing of Evidence (questions to be sent prior to Pro-D Day)

• What patterns emerged? What are some of your observations about student learning, in particular, relating to the development of self-identity?
• Share and record in grade groups (a shared excel sheet on the staff portal  will be set up to document conversations and findings)
• Share in big group 

 Discussion

• How might we help students along on their identity continuum/journey?
• How does this connect naturally to what you do in your context?
• What might be some of your professional inquiries and how might we move us further along our learning journey?
• How can we dive deeper?
