Sense of Community Task Force
2002-2004

We would like to foster a sense of belonging and caring within the entire community, including school staff, parents and families and students. We want to honor continuous improvement and achievement in an environment that is based on respectful and caring relationships. We, the Jordan community, are all in this game of education together. We are the "village" and we are all on the same team!

 

Subgroups:

1. Developing Team-Building Strategies
Subgroup Activities:
Working together toward common purposes while supporting one another in those efforts. Develop a trusting environment.

2. Continuing New Teacher Support
Subgroup Activities:
Offering the teachers new to Jordan and new to teaching the support they need to feel successful. Sharing successful practices with colleagues and developing strong working relationships. 		3. Touchy-Feely Stuff (Works with social committee)
Subgroup Activities:
Foster a welcoming and appreciative environment. Develop strong working relationships. Provide opportunities for celebration and social time.
