老師們腦力激盪,協力合心設計菩提種子教案

十一月十六日,經過了一早上三小時的授課,以及短暫的午餐休息之後,專任老師們齊聚於人文教室參與十一月的教務會議,在副校長慧婷的帶領下,細心說明原由與主題內涵後,分低中高三組進行教案討論,共同分擔由慈濟花蓮本會教育志業統籌的2014年菩提種子教案計劃,盼本校也能為全美的慈濟菩提種子教案盡一份心力,設計一份適合本地孩子的靜思語教案。
老師們用心討論,按靜思語五段式教學設計分配每個人的工作,並約好再次見面整合各段設設計的內容,慈濟的人文教育在我們這群老師身上,歷歷可見每一位的用心耕耘,是菩薩心人師情,令人動容。

Parent volunteers helped with wrapping gifts for teachers & TAs

After a whole week of freezing weather, the temperature rose to near 48 degrees on Saturday, 12/14. We called for parents to help wrapping gifts for teachers and TAs, and for Tillicum Middle school staff. Just to express our appreciations.

經過一週來的嚴寒天氣, 週六上課日氣溫總算回升了一些, 再加上或許是放假在即, 心情上也輕鬆許多。志工們準備了蘋果與橘子,號召愛心媽媽們幫忙包裝,要分送給老師、助教以及Tillicum Middle School的老師們。

媽媽們學著如何包裝一致整齊的禮物,蘋果象徵"平安",橘子代表"吉祥",禮雖輕,卻代表了深深的祝福與感恩。




放寒假了,敬祝大家佳節愉快
2014見!

人文學校為海燕颱風災民募款與祝福

v  在海燕颱風重創菲律賓後的週六上課日(十一月十六日),我們全校師生齊聚於餐廳為菲律賓災民祈禱,期許將振動的祝福心聲送到菲律賓去。並於隔週上課日開始在學校進行募款
截至 12/7 人文學校共募得善款$3,399.21,其中的$1,395.22由家長書法班的學員踴躍響應「八分飽,兩分助人好」的呼籲而募集。
感恩一年感恩班的學生們點滴匯聚愛心善款共計 $140.13

我們將會於下週繼續在學校置放募款箱繼續為菲律賓發動賑災募款,希望能邀集到更多的善心善款,隨著我們的祝福送到菲律賓去。

以下是聯合國人道救援網頁的頭版新聞,由聯合國單位發出,將慈濟的「以工代賑」訊息列為頭版。讓您更清楚慈濟如何運用您的善款、傳遞您的愛心 http://reliefweb.int/report/philippines/cash-work-cleanup-tacloban

Inclement weather procedure

The following information is provided to you in the event that weather conditions require closures of our buildings.  Our primary concern is to consider the safety of all concerned (custodial staff and community user group).  At the same time we want to ensure that everyone is “on the same page”.

If there is an early dismissal on Friday or if school is closed for the entire day, this means that all school district buildings will be closed to all activities for the entire weekend.

If weather conditions are normal on Friday and the road conditions become hazardous or it snows on the weekend, this would also require that our buildings be closed to all activities.  Again, our primary interest is safety of staff and community. 

For additional information please refer to the EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS BULLETIN which is available on the District web page at http://www.bsd405.org/about-us/departments/transportation-services/emergency-school-closure-information.aspx
