Ashland School Board Innovation Committees
Ashland Families, Students, and Community Members -
The Ashland School Board recently voted to create a series of Innovation Committees focused on some key areas that are of great importance to the district's operations and strategic plan. These committees will gather information and present their ideas to the Ashland School Board. We are seeking those with skills, insights, and broad perspectives to help envision schools for the future for ALL Ashland children.
At this time, the three committees we are moving forward with are:
• Calendar and Schedule;
• Re-imagining High School; and
• Enrollment: Attracting New Children and Families to Ashland.
Two meetings will be held this year and work will be scheduled to continue next fall.
Committees will be comprised of a number of constituent groups including community members, family members, teachers, administrators, and students.
If YOU are interested in learning more or serving on one of these committees, please take a moment to fill out this form to let us know by April 30, 2023. Click the link below for detailed information and to apply:

Both 5th grade classes went to Upper Table Rock to learn about and explore the natural wonders in our own backyard! They also learned about Native people who have historically lived in this region and continue to live here, heard a humming bird break the sound barrier, learned about erosion, volcanoes 🌋 and forest layers!
Mr. Carnes 4th graders went on a field trip to Oredson Todd Woods. They met with Tara, their guide who went over ways that young people can appreciate nature. Taking the time to be quiet and to observe and experience the natural world without distractions. Each student brought a notebook and practiced ways to observe nature through descriptive language and pictures. They practiced using their writing to describe things in nature that they observe using descriptive figurative language. The class learned the importance of taking care of their environment and being a responsible steward of natural areas.
Bellview Talent Show was a big hit! There are many talented Bobcats! There was singing, dancing, magic tricks, jump roping, gymnastics, violins and piano players and even some ventriloquism! Great job Bobcats!

Wednesday, all Ashland students from our K-5 and K-8 schools gathered together to sing and share about what they are doing to be positive change makers in our community. We sang songs and watched a video of students from each school sharing what they are doing to be the change they want to see in the world.
Thank you to 5th grade teacher at Helman, Trish Dorr, for putting together the video. Also a big thank you to the district committee that organized the event, with special thanks to our music teachers: Sage Meadows, Amy Merwin, and Emily Jeffs who organized all of our choirs to lead the music, and to our guest Alice Di Micele for sharing her music and her message about change. It was a wonderful event! Ask your student what they are going to do to be a change maker at home, at school, and in the community!

We had our monthly Community Assembly today and focused on Mindfulness. Ms. Michelle led us in a breathing exercise, Ms. Julie and the bees helped us think about how to be mindful throughout our day, second grade sang "Magic Penny", the Bobcat Choir sang "Everybody" and we had lots of winners for the Bobcat lunch drawing! Assembly days are my favorite! Next month, our focus will be on integrity.
