This National Women’s History Month and Career Technical Education (CTE) Month we will feature students who are making strides, breaking barriers in traditionally male-dominated fields. This week, we feature CTE Bicycle Technology student Emmie. Emmie loves the class because it integrates math, physics and engineering concepts together into a tangible medium. “I’m an artist. I love to draw and being able to work with these bikes hands-on, teaches me how to see models and bikes from 3D perspectives… I was able to expand my horizons as an artist in this class,” Emmie said.
The “Hawk Store” is a place where students can redeem “Hawk Bills” for small toys or a recess pass. The store is one of the many examples our school district uses rewards to recognize students’ positive behavior and actions. Each Friday, three students from each class, who received ‘Hawk Bills’ from throughout the week, pick a prize. The students who received the bills demonstrated positive acts. For example, a student helping a friend. “(My classmate) hurt his leg, I went to Miss Sara and asked for a wheelchair,” Ariyah, a student recalled. The store is run by the school’s social worker, Stephanie Dillard. “For anything that’s positive, we want to reward them, we want to encourage them, so that school can be fun and so they can look forward to coming to the Hawk Store,” Dillard said. Out of the squishy toys, slinkies, and lollipops, the most popular reward is the “Soar to Bonus Recess Pass” where students are allowed 15 extra minutes of recess with a friend.
Feast and Learn with NUSD as we celebrate Black History Month with Chef Vada Galvez and CTE Hospitality students Jerika and Raymond. In this video, the trio share how to cook Chef Vada’s version of baked macaroni and cheese with seafood, what Black History Month means to them, and their personal memories of what makes the dish special.
January is National Braille Literacy Month! We highlight our braille/dual vision books, as we work to recognize and celebrate the various kinds of media which help build literacy skills. In this video check out some of the books at H. Allen Hight and Natomas Middle School library, so students with and without sight can read together.
Natomas Unified is proud to share our collection of new books which focus on notable African American figures, black joy, and Black history year-round. Ashley Collins, Teacher on Special Assignment (TOSA) at Natomas Park Elementary, explains the importance of these new books as the second most diverse school district in the nation.“I think the most important part is these stories live on in our library bookshelves. It’s not just a one month a year (literary celebration), it’s the whole year, and for years to come, so a pretty cool way to act on our value of diversity, equity, and inclusion,” Collins said.
Last week, Natomas USD celebrated their annual “Every Student Succeeding” event. One student from each school site was selected by school staff members as exemplary students who have overcome obstacles. Watch some of the students share how it feels to be honored.
Witter Ranch Elementary students sing about the elements of literacy in a production of “Beauty and the Beast Tell All”.
