Dear parents, students, staff and community members,
Please participate in the survey/Thoughexchange below. Your input is extremely valuable.
What is a Portrait of a Graduate?
Bensenville School District 2, Wood Dale School District 7 and Fenton Community High School District 100 are excited to announce that we are working collaboratively to develop a Portrait of a Graduate. A Portrait of a Graduate is a community-developed picture of the hopes and dreams it has for students. It identifies what graduates will know, the competencies and skills they will develop, and the beliefs and values that will lead to success in learning, work, and life. The portrait describes the “finished product” of a school system.
How will a Portrait of a Graduate be developed?
In working collaboratively, the school districts will create a representative team comprised of students, staff, board members, and administrators from the three districts.
How can I contribute?
We encourage you to participate by submitting your comments via Thoughtexchange, an online discussion tool. You will answer one open-ended question, and see and rate other people’s comments by using a star rating. The representative team from the districts will use the data from Thoughtexchange to help create the Portrait of a Graduate. The team will meet on October 1st, October 22nd and November 4.
To participate in our Thoughtexchange,
Sincerely,
James Ongtengco
Superintendent
