Hello Falcon Families and Students,

Welcome to October! It has truly been an amazing start to the school year. I continue to be thankful everyday that I get to serve you all as your new Principal. We are having so much fun here at Liberty. The photo you see here is a Master Falconer guest speaking at our Falcon Farm. Our students learned about the many ways raptors interact with our environment. I have had the opportunity to meet so many of our students and parents throughout September and I am looking forward to making those connections with more of you. I am learning that the Liberty community gets involved in their kids' activities and education. I am so impressed with the positive support I see at sports, meetings and activities. It is obvious to me that our families are here to support our school and their kids. There will be several ways to stay involved as we move into October and I hope you all feel welcomed when you walk in the doors of Liberty High School. It is very important to me that all of our students and families feel connected and have an entry point at Liberty. Please get involved in all the good stuff and if you don't know how to get connected, reach out to us and we will help.

All the Best,

Mr. Joule

SERVICES OFFERED FOR TALENTED AND GIFTED (TAG) STUDENTS

Parents are welcome to refer their child for services designed for students identified as talented and gifted. Students who perform exceptionally beyond regular instruction on a universal screener measuring overall reading or math or on a mental abilities test, and have other confirming evidence that they learn at a rapid rate and advanced level, can be identified as TAG students. With parent input, individual plans are made to adjust the rate and level of the student’s instruction to meet his or her specific needs.

If you think your child may qualify for TAG services, and want information about the referral and identification process, please contact your school’s TAG Coordinator.

Servicios para Estudiantes Talentosos y Dotados (TAG, por sus siglas en inglés)
Los padres son bienvenidos a recomendar a su estudiante a los servicios diseñados para estudiantes identificados como TAG. Los estudiantes que se desempeñan excepcionalmente por sobre el nivel de aprendizaje regular en un examen universal que evalúa el lenguaje o las matemáticas en general o en una prueba de habilidades mentales, y tienen otra evidencia que confirma que aprenden a un ritmo rápido y a un nivel avanzado, pueden identificarse como estudiantes TAG. Con la opinión de los padres, se hacen planes individuales para ajustar el ritmo y el nivel de instrucción del estudiante para satisfacer sus necesidades específicas.

Si usted piensa que su estudiante puede calificar para los servicios TAG, y quiere información sobre cómo recomendarlo y cómo es el proceso, por favor póngase en contacto con el coordinador TAG de su escuela.

Dịch vụ cho Học sinh Tài năng và Năng khiếu (viết tắt tiếng Anh là TAG)

Chúng tôi hoan nghênh phụ huynh giới thiệu con mình đến các dịch vụ được thiết kế cho học sinh được nhận diện là tài năng và năng khiếu. Học sinh thể hiện thành tích học tập xuất sắc vượt mức thông thường trong sàng lọc phổ quát đánh giá tổng thể khả năng đọc hay toán học, hoặc trong bài kiểm tra khả năng trí tuệ, và có các bằng chứng xác nhận khác rằng các em học với tốc độ nhanh và ở trình độ nâng cao, có thể được nhận diện là học sinh TAG. Với ý kiến đóng góp của phụ huynh, kế hoạch cá nhân sẽ được lập ra để điều chỉnh tốc độ và trình độ giảng dạy cho học sinh để đáp ứng nhu cầu cụ thể của các em.

Nếu quý vị cho rằng con mình có thể đủ điều kiện nhận các dịch vụ TAG và muốn biết thông tin về quy trình giới thiệu và nhận diện, xin vui lòng liên hệ với Điều phối viên TAG của trường.

This week we will begin our first Access Time on Thursday, October 3, followed by Falcon Time on Friday, October 4th. Access Time will be during the 45 minute advisory time slot on our bell schedule for Thursdays. Students will be scheduled into their Access Time by staff. Their access time assignment will show up on their schedule as Period 10 on Thursday. During Access Time students will be working with teachers in a specific subject area on assignments in class to accelerate and deepen their learning.

On Friday the 4th we will engage in our second Falcon Time. Students will be choosing their activities on Tuesday during Advisory. Get ready for more games, more crafts, more karaoke, more ping pong, and more fun with our community!
