We look forward to celebrating our Cory Cougars with all of you during teacher meetings on Monday. It’s been such a positive and engaging start to the year, and we can’t wait to connect with you then!
Thank you for your continued support.

What is TSEAL? Transformative Social Emotional Academic Learning
“Transformative SEAL” is a process whereby young people and adults build strong, respectful, and lasting, relationships that facilitate co-learning to critically examine root causes of inequity, and to develop collaborative solutions that lead to personal, community, and societal well-being.
This form of TSEAL is aimed at redistributing power to promote social justice through increased engagement in school and civic life. It emphasizes the development of identity, agency, belonging, curiosity, and collaborative problem solving
It’s critically important that school wide TSEAL implementation intentionally nurtures an environment in which educators gain social and emotional competence by learning, collaborating, and modeling their social and emotional skills. Along with these social and emotional skills, schools must also fold in conversations about race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, language and ability so that the conversation about TSEAL takes into account the student’s fullest identities. It is recommended that schools do a deep dive into understanding how educators, students, and community can navigate conversations about race, sex, gender, ableism and other social identities in order to establish systems and supports that strengthen both adult and student Social Emotional Academic Learning.
Come along on our Cory TSEAL journey!

At this point, all ALP’s have been drafted in conjunction with both the student and their teacher. ALL ALPS HAVE BEEN SENT. If you have not received it, please reach out immediately to me at summer_de-herrera1@dpsk12.net to have it resent!
Please note, these goals are all made in conjunction both with your student,myself, and their classroom teachers. We hope that you will provide feedback on these goals so that all of us can partner together to make these goals as successful as possible for your student. I will ask that all feedback on goals are submitted no later than October 6th for grades 4-5 so that I can finalize all goals in our system. Grades 1-3 were due on the first. If there is any last minute feedback, please also reach out immediately. I am beginning to finalize our 1st-3rd students ALPs and you will receive a formalized ALP in the upcoming weeks!
