Student voice in action! Our student confidently explained her answer choice and supported her thinking with evidence. This is what meaningful discourse and deeper learning look like! 🎓💡 @LithoniaHigh@MCWilkinsPhD#EveryVoiceMatters#NewDay
From PLC lesson internalization to classroom implementation! Our teacher planned an egg osmosis demonstration with his team, then brought it to life for students—turning collaboration into engaging, hands-on science learning. 🥚🔬 @LithoniaHigh@MCWilkinsPhD#NewDay
Changing the story, one conversation at a time. 🖤💛
At LHS, even discipline is an opportunity to teach, restore, and reconnect. This week in ISS, scholars engaged in a restorative circle centered on student voice and accountability, followed by an SEL lesson on breaking the cycle and recognizing the power we have to make a different choice.
Consequences matter. Reflection matters. Restoration matters. Growth is the goal. 💛🖤
