The beginning of a new school year is always an opportunity to share some big ideas about how we can work together in service to our students. This year I have focused on three ideas: Partnership, Trust, and Communication, which I have highlighted in remarks to our families at various events.
This new ACDS blog is intended to aid in all three of those domains. First, the blog will support our partnership with families by offering insight on educational topics, reflection on our practices, and supportive parenting materials for our families. Second, it will help to build trust as we showcase the good work that we are doing with children and demonstrate our active approach to continuous improvement. Third, it will enhance communication as we both share information and invite commentary.
You should expect a new blog entry at least once each week. Lower School Head, Melissa Davis; Middle School Head, Ryan Woods; and I will each make regular entries, and we will encourage faculty and others to share thoughts and information as well. Our goal is that the blog is practical, insightful, and engaging. We know you have limited time, so we will also try to be brief! Please add us to your newsreader and make it a habit to read what we have to share. I also encourage you to follow us on Twitter where we will post links to new blog entries among other resources. You can follow school Tweets @ACDSBobcats, and you can follow me @sbaytosh. We will also provide our blog entries on the news feed of our website as well as on our Facebook page.
We hope you enjoy our blog offerings and welcome any feedback you may have. Here's to an exciting year!
