High School Highlights
From Sandy Arancibia
In Mentorship, Molly W., Margela S. and Rosalina K. are helping Ming to be able to participate in our activities and are very helpful in reaching out to include him. Kudos to them!

From Rich Friel
Team Sports is going to start bowling every 3rd Friday of the month along with a trip to Mastick Park for Soccer golf and a unit on Tennis at Morton Park in the future.  Fitness and weightlifting will also take advantage of the above trips along with a unit on golf plus a trip to Mastick to extend their skills. Health classes will be finishing CPR this week. Everyone have been doing great!
 
From Grant Graves
We had an excellent addition to the TLC from the Innovation Center and Sophomore student Briana J! This was Briana's first time using the laser cutter from the Innovation Center and made this "Warrior Pride" vinyl sign for above the TLC door. This is our version of Notre Dame's "Play Like A Champion Today" sign that they hit before exiting the locker room to the field. Excellent student produced work! 
 
From Colleen Nagy
Tia W. has been very helpful with our new student Jannah this year.  She showed Mr. Slack and me how to translate any website (including the PLP) to Arabic for Jannah. This has been a lifesaver!  Great job Tia!

From Nick Wolansky
All of the mentoring group students in my class enjoyed completing the OhioMeansJobs career profile survey- they were surprised at the different careers that match up with their personalities, especially the amount of income they can potentially earn in their career match.
 
 
From Mary Cory
Welcome to Pablo, our AFS student from Spain! Pablo is in 10th grade and will be playing soccer for FHS. 

Isaac M. (grade 9) did a great job MAP testing with me this week. He was patient, responsible and hardworking. I am really proud of him!

From Chrissy Karliak
Kira W. represented Fairview High School in the All-Ohio State Fair Youth Choir for the second year in a row!  She spent two weeks performing 6 shows a day for fair goers in Columbus. She also participated in a choir camp at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts.
Warrior Pride!

PLP Tips
Students will begin utilizing their personalized learning platform (PLP) this coming week.  Some tips:

Ask your student:
1) Do you have courses that are on the PLP?  Which ones?  

2) Would you show me how you log in and what you see when you do? Note: We recommend you login as your student, that way you are sure to see all links, such as Google Docs. 

3) Can we look and see what is in each of these sections named here on the dashboard to the left of the screen? (Week, year, progress, college).

4) What is the "Blue Line?" 

Good to know: The "Blue Line" in the year section marks time as weeks go by. It does not move on weekends or days when we know most students will not be working on their courses. For example, during Fall Break (Conferences/Thanksgiving).  Students can, of course, access and work on their materials and tasks. These days bring increased opportunities for catching up or forging ahead. 

5 ) Discuss how often and when you and your student will sit down to look at and discuss materials and progress in the PLP.  What schedule you establish will depend on your student's strengths and challenges. Your student's mentor and teachers can advise you about frequency.  
What to Watch For: 

If after the PLP is "live" for a week or two:
1) In the WEEK section, you do not that your student is adding goals under most or all of the days.

2) In the YEAR section, your student cannot show you what work in either or both the first Project and first Power Focus Area is underway.  

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher or the school office.
