Principal Report:

Mr. Patterson introduced Orion’s new faculty members

Mr. Patterson led a discussion about the following items:

How do we “Empower every student to succeed?”

  • Establish the learning targets: What destinations do the students need to arrive at:
  • How does the teacher and the student know that they are making the progress they need to arrive at the destination: “Are we there yet?” 
  • What are we doing for those students that need extra support?
  • What are we doing for those students who have arrived at the destination and need to be pushed further?

Every person at Orion will have “A Name, A Face, A Voice, and Purpose”

  • Teachers are in the halls talking to students during passing time
  • Every student has a purpose that they feel is important

100% of our students need to benefit from Titan Time

  • Students are in the same Titan Time teacher’s class all year long
  • Students will possibly have the same Titan Time teacher all 3 years while at Orion
