Week Ending June 7th, 2024

That's a WRAP! The SouthCoast Creative Arts Lab wrapped up their spring semester with amazing middle school work happening weekly, under the leadership of Vicki Arons, Dennis Robinson, Vanessa Reis and Michelle Borges. Kudos to the adults and kids involved in this after school model program. I attended a Southcoast ommunity Foundation meeting late last week, and was so proud to represent Fall River at the table, as the committee discussed how Fall River is making strides as we collaborate between the public school system and the local cultural council and FRACC. Good morning, Arts Fam! Big news on the horizon- last night, the school committee voted to move Assistant Superintendent Tracy Curley forward as their candidate of choice for the next Superintendent. This would mean that Tracy's position would be posted, and a new leader for Teaching and Learning will be chosen to lead all content areas. There will still be a period of w...

In the News This Week: FRACC SCCAL Wrap Up Observations and Evaluations Lesson Plans Learning Walk FRACC SCCAL Wrap Up: What an amazing program... The FRPS 7-8th graders have been working with their mentors (Vicki Arons, Vanessa Reis and Dennis Robinson) throughout the fall semester and the end result included songs that students composed themselves and artwork that was amazing.

Here is the video... Observations and Evaluations: If you are in a one year plan, you are probably meeting with your ...

The Impact of AND and So- June 14, 2024

Man, that was one busy WEEK! This is a very weird blog, because it's my last blog. I have learned SO much from this team, and if you want to know, what I hang my hat on as I leave next Tuesday will be that throughout these nine years, I have built a power team in Fall River. Our kids deserve the best, and you bring that to them. Working in a city school system is not easy street- that we know from experience. And so many times, we see students in other urban districts who either do not have access to programs (have you seen how many places are cutting arts?) or have art/music but teachers are given bare bones supplies/instruments. I am PROUD to say that we are a model program, and many other urban districts look to YOU for inspiration. So, lean into that. Through this team, I have learned the power of the word AND and SO . Here is what I mean. You are AND people. Not SO. You SAY "Yup, my kids are learning to speak a new ...
