New Metrics Deep Dive

If you are interested in looking more closely at New Metrics, the work they have done already, the tools they have created, and where it could fit at NIS, this is the session for you.

I will run two of the same session, so that there is some choice of date to navigate your other commitments. (You don’t need to come to both sessions).

We will work in LGR2 from 3:15 – 4:15. The sessions will be on Wednesday 12 (tomorrow) and Thursday 20 November. 

Please complete this very quick form to register your interest in attending one of the sessions.

This will be a great space to ask questions, unpack the work, and share ideas.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you.

Student Volunteer Opportunity — Pfrang “Giving Tree” Card Preparations

To any student who has some volunteer hours still to fill for Semester 1, we have an opportunity for you!

After school on Friday, November 14, from 3:10pm to 5:10pm, we will be applying name labels to this year’s gift cards for our annual Pfrang “Giving Tree” drive. Easy, but hugely helpful and rewarding work to assist our Pfrang Association in their support of students in need.

If you are interested, either come by and sign up on the sheet outside Mr. McHugh’s Music classroom, M252, or email him directly at mikemchugh@nanjing-school.com.

Looking forward to kicking off our Giving Tree drive this year with your assistance!

Mr. McHugh
