Harwood Weekly Update
On April 1, 2015 approximately 625 students and 85 faculty/staff
simultaneously participated in a facilitated dialog that spanned almost
3 hours. The dialog was an opportunity to share perspectives about
relationships and relevance of teaching and learning in a safe and
respectful way. It was about building community. It was about
discovering our strengths and challenges as a learning organization,
and collectively thinking about ways to make improvements. Simply
put, it was powerful.

Facilitating Input and Posting Suggestions
During the April 8th ERD a handful of students and teachers collated all the input
from the dialog and are preparing to present it to the faculty/staff and students along
with a process for deciding action steps we can take as a learning community.

Harwood Youth and Adult Team to Present at the Vermont State
House
In 2013, Vermont passed Act 77: Flexible Pathways. The
legislation serves as a promise to the children of the state—that a
high-quality education be accessible and available to all learners.
It is also a promise to the future of Vermont, as strong schools
lead to strong communities—and vice versa!
This past year, through the support of the Vermont Agency of
Education and State School Board Association, a Harwood youth
and adult team has been supported to build public understanding
and support for Act 77. Harwood members of the
“Communicating School Redesign” course will present their
collective work with 4 other Vermont youth and adult teams. The
Harwood team includes students Cole Lavoie, Sophia Minter and
Alexa Widschwenter; Ellen Berrings, Marcus Grace and Amy Rex
will accompany them.
