Jenerra Williams and Geralyn Bywater Mclaughlin IMPORTANT DATES AND REMINDERS Family Council Zoom Gathering - Monday March 30 8:30pm (see details on the last section of the newsletter) All Boston Public Schools are closed until May 4th due to the pandemic. Find resources and the latest information at https://www.bostonpublicschools.org/coronavirus March 27, 2020 Volume 23, Issue 26 ​ Humanity Dear Mission Hill School Friends, Families, Students and Staff, Last week we had a tremendous positive response from families about the weekly newsletter. It was a true indicator to Jenerra and myself that keeping up this weekly tradition will help our community stay connected and feel supported in these uncertain times. The format might look a little different some weeks, and we ask you to be flexible about your expectations. This week, we have news from our specialists and teachers outside of the classroom. Keeping our humanity and grace in the middle of all of this, is one thing we are working hard at. For example, our March report cards were due to be sent home today. It became clear to us as school leaders, that given how much the lives and jobs of our teaching staff has changed in the last two weeks, it did not make sense to keep this deadline in place. It just was not reasonable. Our Instructional Leadership Team (ILT) made the decision to extend the report card writing time one week, and we thank you for your patience and understanding. Our humanity comes into play when thinking about the learning that is happening now. At Mission Hill School we understand the importance of taking care of students' social/emotional needs as well as their academic needs during this unprecedented time of school closure. We aim to help students and families find the right balance. What this balance looks like will be different for everyone. Our staff is working hard to collaborate with each other and our families to provide learning opportunities that help all students move forward academically and get all their needs met. As with your students, that humanity comes into play with us as adults as well. Whether it is another adult in your household, a colleague, your child's teacher, the person on the other end of the phone trying to help you find answers to your questions or fulfill a need, remember humanity and extend it. When we all do this, we are all better - in the smallest and largest of ways - no matter what is going on around us. ​Jenerra Williams and Geralyn Bywater McLaughlin SCHOOL-WIDE News Priya Kumar this time, in their precise order to serve our students and ​ ​ Learning Coach of importance.

Retrieved from http://ojs.library.ubc.ca/index.php/criticaled/article/view/185901 Abstract There was a time in United States history when the central argument for investing in public education was to ensure that voters were sufficiently informed about the issues of the day to make wise decisions: education for self-governance. According to multiple sources, voter ignorance remains a serious concern and this may be a factor in why the political system in the United States is not more responsive to the needs and preferences of the electorate.

Tuesday, October 8 Dr. Brenda Cassellius, Superintendent visits MHS ​ ​ September 27, 2019 Volume 23, Issue 4 Learning From You Dear Mission Hill School Friends, Families, Students and Staff, Starting Monday, October 30th our school will begin a two-week window for the fall “Listening Conferences.” This is our annual opportunity for classroom teachers to hear from families and learn about your children. We call these meetings Listening Conferences as they are a chance for us to learn from you - the experts on your ​ ​ child(ren). Students attend the Listening Conferences, and together the team will talk about expectations and set goals for the year. If you are not sure when your Listening Conference is, please contact your child’s teacher as soon as possible. Jenerra and I have been having Listening Conferences as well. Ours have been with Mission Hill School staff members. As new leaders, we are spending time listening and learning from the educators we work with. Each conference is unique, and we set the stage by making sure each person can use the time as they need. We offer prompts and questions such as: Tell us about what is going well... What challenges are you working through? How can we support you? What questions do you have for us? For new leaders, these conferences are an investment in our partnership with our colleagues and are key to our democratic school - a place where everyone’s viewpoint is important and every voice matters.

  • Access, Equity and Activism: TEACHING the POSSIBLE! Progressivenational Education Conference Network New York City October 8-10, 2015
    1 Access, Equity and Activism: TEACHING THE POSSIBLE! Progressive Education Network National Conference New York City PEN_Conference_2015.indd 1 October 8-10, 2015 9/29/15 2:25 PM 2 Mission and History of the Progressive Education Network “The Progressive Education Network exists to herald and promote the vision of progressive education on a national basis, while providing opportunities for educators to connect, support, and learn from one another.” In 2004 and 2005, The School in Rose Valley, PA, celebrated its seventy- fifth anniversary by hosting a two-part national conference, Progressive Education in the 21st Century. Near the end of the conference, a group of seven educators from public and private schools around the country rallied to a call-to-action to revive the Network of Progressive Educators, which had been inactive since the early 1990s. Inspired by the progressive tenets of the conference, the group shared a grand collective mission: to establish a national group to rise up, protect, clarify, and celebrate the principles of progressive education and to fashion a revitalized national educational vision. This group, “The PEN Seven” (Maureen Cheever, Katy Dalgleish, Tom Little, Kate (McLellan) Blaker, John Pecore, Lisa Shapiro, and Terry Strand) hosted the organization’s first national conference in San Francisco in 2007. As a result of the committee’s efforts, the Progressive Education Network (PEN) was formed and in 2009 was incorporated as a 501 (c) 3 charitable, non-profit organization. Biannual conferences, supported by PEN and produced by various committees, followed in DC, Chicago, and LA, with attendance growing from 250 to 950.

    30 YEARS OF COMMON PRINCIPLES AND UNCOMMON SCHOOLS COALITION OF ESSENTIAL SCHOOLS FALL FORUM NOVEMBER 7-9, 2014 SAN FRANCISCO Fall Forum 2014 30 Years of Common Principles and Uncommon Schools Dear Friends, Welcome to the celebration of 30 Years of Common Principles and Uncommon Schools! When the organizing committee for this year’s Fall Forum sent me this year’s theme I must admit that my eyes misted up just a bit. Could it really be 30 years of CES? And then I began to recall all the colleagues and friends that make up my memories of Fall Forum and the work of CES. All the schools that I know of that are, in their uncommon ways, making the world a better place for children and their families. The exhibitions of learning I have seen, portfolios I have read, advisory meetings I have sat in on, graduates I have heard give testimony to their school, and teachers telling me about the love they have for their work. Honestly, I get choked up again just writing those sentences. When our founder, Ted Sizer, began CES it was, I believe, in an elevator with several school leaders who shared a common belief. They shared belief that public education in our nation is absolutely vital to the preservation and advancement of our republic. Further, they knew that such an education required schools that were engaging, child centered, honored the work of teachers, and made students stand and deliver when it came time to show what they know. Beyond that they knew, from their years of experience, that reforms at the time (remember A Nation At Risk?) were not going to get us to those schools.

  • Dewey's Democratic Conception in Education and Democratic
    Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook No. 13, March, 2019. pp. 55-66 Dewey’s Democratic Conception in Education and Democratic Schooling: Lessons from the United States for Japan in a Time of Democracy in Crisis Naoshi Kira† Democracy is in crisis around the globe, especially in the United States due to the results of the presidential election in 2016; it is now a bitterly divid- ed society. In this context, this article reviews the democratic conception in ed- ucation presented by John Dewey as his Democracy and Education celebrated its centenary also in 2016. A few key concepts of Dewey’s ideas and structural features of democratic schooling were combined to develop a conceptual frame- work to analyze democratic schooling. Then, two U.S. democratic schools were comparatively analyzed using the conceptual framework, including participation in a small diverse community. This study concluded that democratic schooling has enormous potential to educate citizens who can become the eff ective agents of change desperately needed in the larger society, although the number of schools which systematically implement it is limited due to various obstacles. Lessons for Japan include the idea that giving students the authority to decide what to learn and how to learn it can lead them to take responsibility for their own education. There is anecdotal evidence that many graduates of the first democratic school examined here work in service and social justice professions, so further research is needed to pursue this theme along with others.
