Congratulations to CHS Staff for earning CEF Grants
Kristien Weidle – CHS, Assistant Principal & Sabina Dallmeyer - CHS Math Teacher
Flexible Seating to Increase Engagement & Achievement ($500.00) – Caroline High School has done the research and found that flexible seating will positively impact student engagement, attendance, quality instruction and student achievement. Adjustable tables and mobile seating will accommodate the variety of learning needs for high school students. CHS is excited that the mobile and flexible tables and seating will provide more room to utilize technology in conjunction with promoting blended learning, small group instruction, collaboration, and strategic think-pair-share interactions between students and instructors. The committee is looking forward to seeing this innovation in action!
Sharon Williams – CHS, American Sign Language Teacher
On Our Way to Gally ($500.00) – Is a day trip to tour the Gallaudet University campus located in Washington DC. This amazing adventure for our American Sign Language students would uniquely accomplish all 5 principles identified by the National Standards in Foreign Language: Communication, Culture, Connections, Comparison, and Communities. The CEF committee can’t wait to hear about the life changing experiences our CCPS students will have visiting GU.
The Caroline Education Foundation thanks all educators who submitted a proposal this year. Your innovative ideas empower the next generation of learners, thinkers, and leaders here in Caroline and beyond.
