Hello families! The new school year is just around the corner we have something new for you! This year we are trying a new SEL curriculum: Suite360 with Navigate. Please read the attached letter for more information. More information about the student and parent platforms (that's right... you can get your own account with resources, too!) will also be available at back to school night.

Dear Parent/Guardian, Stafford Schools is committed to providing a safe and nurturing learning environment in which students can explore and grow as they work to reach their fullest potential, both as young people now and as adults in future years. To maintain these standards for our school culture, we have selected Suite360 Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) to become an integrated part of your child’s learning. SEL is a process that intentionally teaches the fundamental aspects of human development that are necessary for success in life. SEL is important because it has been proven to result in improved classroom behaviors, increased academic achievement, and enhanced mental health for students in grades K-12. We’ve done our due diligence in selecting the Suite360 program. This SEL curriculum is fully aligned with the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) Framework, which is considered to be the benchmark standard for SEL. There are 5 key areas CASEL considers imperative to the development of school-aged children: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills and responsible decision-making. The Suite360 lessons are scaffolded by grade and are highly interactive to meet students in an environment with which they’re comfortable – the digital learning environment. We’re excited to begin this new learning journey with our students, and we’re looking forward to having you join us as true allies in the effort to nurture our students into happy and successful citizens. Suite360 curricula will be integrated into your child’s usual academic school day to ensure we are helping them become as well-rounded and emotionally healthy as possible. We have included frequently asked questions and answers to help you better understand the what, why, and how of Suite360 SEL. Please feel free to reach out to me at any time with any questions you may have. Sincerely, Destiny Johnson

Our third week of Tech Camp revolved around drones. We learned to account for yaw and pitch and to work around drift as well as code variables, loops and functions. We created obstacle courses and coded the path to get around/through them as both teams and individuals. We sure enjoyed our 3 weeks with these fantastic Trojans!
