TURNING POINT - LEWIS COUNTY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL REOPENING PLAN Draft -- 7/30/2020 TURNING POINT - LEWIS COUNTY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL REOPENING PLAN Draft -- 7/30/2020 Max building safe student capacity at any given time = 22 (with no additional furniture or modifications) AM & PM groups of 25 each (enrollment cap, assuming 80% attendance), down from an unofficial cap of 30 per session -- typical attendance was 20-22. We may be OK with enrollment cap of 30 per session -- would need a plan for what to do if more than 22 attend. This is subject to change, per DOH guidelines. One student per table, no moving chairs. Normal course expectations (completion percentages, etc.) resume in September. We adjusted expectations for scores and percent of course completed during the shutdown. Currently: ● ALE model allows students to attend school less than “full-time.” ● Standard: 2.75 hours/day, 4 days/week. Work from home the remainder of the time (17 hours/week). ● With permission, students can attend class “live” for fewer hours -- as little as one per week. ● Court-ordered students attend M-F, all others attend M-Th. Fridays optional for non-CO kiddos. ● Depending on the outcome of the CSD-CEA agreement, we may shift our “off” day from Friday each week to Wednesday. This will allow Turning Point staff to participate with other district staff in training. New Situations/Considerations: 1. Will Turning Point need to serve additional students? Likely not, due to occupation restrictions. However, we should prepare to assist with students/families who choose to do ALL distance learning. a. Plan for WFW & CMS students who want to do school from home b. Plan to accommodate student transition to and from WFW & CMS c. Consider sharing course offerings with WFW & CMS d. Maintain the character of Turning Point: an alternative high school, that occasionally serves middle school students. 2. Temperature check for students at start of day, and attestation from parents re: symptoms. 3. Food planning a. Eat at desks, however, some could eat in the entry area. b. Morning students take lunch and leave 4. Process for frequent hand-washing -- plenty of sinks! a. On entry b. Before eating c. After eating d. On exit 5. Zoom or other online meetings will be sufficient per ALE rules -- WAC 392-121-182 (3)(d): . Direct personal contact can be accomplished in person or through the use of telephone, email, instant messaging, interactive video communication, or other means of digital communication. 6. Transition to Google Classroom-based assignments. 7. We will need PPE -- masks for students. 8. 15-minute PE breaks during the day will need to be modified to ensure safety of students. This includes select outdoor activities and indoor exercise room cleaning. 9. One-to-one Chromebooks. Need a supply of extras on-site to avoid issues if/when students forget theirs. 10. If a student has family commitments re: A/B days, Turning Point will be flexible. So, a student MAY only attend every other day. 11. Survey a. “What are your plans for returning to school in the fall?” b. “Will you attend school every day, or do you need to help take care of younger siblings on their ‘remote learning’ days?” c. (combination online, followed up with phone calls) d. Begin survey first week of August -- following Board meeting .

  • Alternate History – Alternate Memory: Counterfactual Literature in the Context of German Normalization
    ALTERNATE HISTORY – ALTERNATE MEMORY: COUNTERFACTUAL LITERATURE IN THE CONTEXT OF GERMAN NORMALIZATION by GUIDO SCHENKEL M.A., Freie Universität Berlin, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (German Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2012 © Guido Schenkel, 2012 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines a variety of Alternate Histories of the Third Reich from the perspective of memory theory. The term ‘Alternate History’ describes a genre of literature that presents fictional accounts of historical developments which deviate from the known course of hi story. These allohistorical narratives are inherently presentist, meaning that their central question of “What If?” can harness the repertoire of collective memory in order to act as both a reflection of and a commentary on contemporary social and political conditions. Moreover, Alternate Histories can act as a form of counter-memory insofar as the counterfactual mode can be used to highlight marginalized historical events. This study investigates a specific manifestation of this process. Contrasted with American and British examples, the primary focus is the analysis of the discursive functions of German-language counterfactual literature in the context of German normalization. The category of normalization connects a variety of commemorative trends in postwar Germany aimed at overcoming the legacy of National Socialism and re-formulating a positive German national identity. The central hypothesis is that Alternate Histories can perform a unique task in this particular discursive setting. In the context of German normalization, counterfactual stories of the history of the Third Reich are capable of functioning as alternate memories, meaning that they effectively replace the memory of real events with fantasies that are better suited to serve as exculpatory narratives for the German collective.

  • The New Order of Hitler: Virtual History, Fiction and Myth
    DEBATER A EUROPA Periódico do CIEDA e do CEIS20 , em parceria com GPE e a RCE. N.13 julho/dezembro 2015 – Semestral ISSN 1647-6336 Disponível em: http://www.europe-direct-aveiro.aeva.eu/debatereuropa/ The New Order of Hitler: Virtual History, Fiction and Myth Sérgio Neto Researcher of CEIS20, University of Coimbra E-mail: [email protected] Abstract At the intersection of counterfactual Historiography and literary fantasy, the triumph of the Axis powers in World War II has been one of the main issues. The resurgence of a hypothetical IV Reich also results extensive. Similarly, cinema has not failed to go over the old question of “if”. This article intent to analyse some virtual literature and historical works of reference about the New European Order in order to discuss possible inspiration that science awoke this genre and concepts revolving around the revisionism and determinism. Keywords: New European Order; Counterfactuals; Dystopia; Historiography; Fantasy When the German army completed the conquest of Poland in September 1939 the New European Order began to take shape. The euphemistic name of that brutal military occupation was in fact more incisive than the name given to the Japanese occupied areas: Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere 1. But, the main issue was if Hitler’s projects achieved in a few years the degree of dehumanization promised by the propaganda with the so called Reich of a Thousand Years. Based on the assumptions outlined by Mein Kampf , as well as the improvisations made during the course of the war, the dreams and fantasies of world domination were analysed not only by the historiography, but widely widespread by the alternate story genre.

  • Memo Is Not a Comprehensive Analysis of Concerns About TPUSA’S Approach
    M E M O R A N D U M TO: Program Team FROM: Kimberly Begg, Esq. Vice President & General Counsel DATE: May 25, 2018 RE: Advising our Students about TPUSA Nationwide, student activists are coming to us with questions about Turning Point USA (TPUSA). They tell us they are frustrated that TPUSA claims credit for their events and creates turmoil within their YAF chapters and other groups. Students are seeking direction from our team about whether to cooperate with TPUSA. In order to provide guidance to students, our team needs to understand that TPUSA is unlike any of the many Conservative Movement organizations we have worked with in the past. This memo is not a comprehensive analysis of concerns about TPUSA’s approach. It is not a report on the many alarming incidents students have shared with us over the years. Rather, it is a compilation of information from public sources, outlining the lack of integrity, honesty, experience, and judgment of this growing organization. Founded in 2012 by Charlie Kirk, TPUSA emerged to “identify, educate, train, and organize students to promote the principles of freedom, free markets, and limited government.” From the start, Kirk made bold claims about TPUSA that could not possibly be true about a start-up organization working with young people. Early marketing materials described TPUSA as the umbrella organization for the young Conservative Movement, under which Young America’s Foundation, Leadership Institute, Intercollegiate Studies Institute, The Fund for American Studies, Young Americans for Liberty, and other groups operate. 1 Early on, Kirk made a name for himself by appearing regularly on Fox News.
