NEWS from FIRST BRANCH
Highlights from the week:
-Chelsea hosted a Town Hall. These Town Halls are now student-run, and that is a unique celebration for us at First Branch! This week, in collaboration with the Super Compost Project, Alena Andrews changed students in a recycling relay race to start the conversation about our school waste. A small outcome from an earlier conversation with the Super Compost Project was ensuring any leftover pumpkins were used post-Halloween. The Punchar family shared some pictures of their pigs enjoying our leftover pumpkins. Many thanks to the Punchar family pigs!
-Up for Learning students visited Tunbridge 2 times this week! The first visit was to work with students on the topic of identity, and the second visit covered the topic related to a portrait of a learner. While this may feel abstract, the student groups worked with Up for Learning Staff and Teacher Leaders ahead of time to find ways to bring these concepts to K-4th grade levels. We can't wait to see what the data tells us!
-A community conversation was held to discuss a timber framing project at Tunbridge. We are grateful to the Friends of First Branch, parent volunteers, faculty, and staff who came out to support this work.
