We are pleased to report the Belpre High School student council and selected junior high students who work with us in the Eagle Clawset recently participated in a visit to the Latrobe Street Mission homeless shelter. We were hosted and guided through the facility by mission staff, all of whom were incredibly passionate about their work! This was a very impactful event for our students, many of whom were deeply moved by the transparency of staff as they told their personal stories, and the overall positivity of the environment even while dealing with the many challenges that have to be overcome on a daily basis! The students and staff who participated in this visit left with a greater understanding of the important work that goes on there, leading to an increased desire to find opportunities to provide support and resources whenever possible as our community moves forward together! Thank you mission staff for hosting us, and for the work you do everyday to touch the lives of so many!

All teachers began professional development days last week with a special keynote from Molly Bestge from Cultivate 21. Molly worked with district leaders to create rubrics to support critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity learning in the district. All teachers now are trained and able to use these common tools to give students consistent and precise feedback, which in turn, will grow their 21st century skills.
Teachers then continued learning in their cohort groups as the district wrapped up year three of a four year professional development plan.
*Exciting news for our young Belpre athletes*
