Summer Hours and Planning for Transitions

Summer Hours Planning Now is the time to start thinking about summer What is happening at your site? Will your role shift during the summer? Check with your supervisor now if you aren’t sure What does summer service look like at your site? How many hours will you need? What host site projects and service are planned? Will you need a Member Initiated Hours plan for summer? Reach out to trainer if you need additional opportunities for summer service

Summer Hours Policy Supervisors should guide and support you in determining summer schedule, additional opportunities, and anticipated hours Summer Hours Policy: Starting June 1st Minimum of 30 hours a week (conditional) If you are on track with hours (must serve at least minimum hours needed each week) If approved by site supervisor Site programming may require full time service how many of you have talked with your supervisors about summer?

Planning for Transition and Summer Wrap up and saying goodbye -to students -to staff PF role during summer -what are your questions or plans? How can you set the next PF up for success? -what helped you when you started? -what do you wish you had? -what can you do to build sustainability? What can I do this month to plan for the future? -what things need to happen while the school year is still in session? -what things can wait until the summer? Whiteboard Brainstorming: We will have some time to think about this and share ideas. On each whiteboard is a topic, have PFs split into groups and brainstorm at each board for 3-5 minutes. Once each group as been to every board, do a group share out: Ask a volunteer to read…. Any major themes that you notice or great ideas? It may seem early to be thinking about the end of the year, but now is the time to think about how you create time to make things happen. These could be good things to think about more during spring break.

Relationship and Academic Check-In Go to your email, everyone will receive academic progress updates for your students If people don’t get the link: you can use tinyurl.com/EMR-AcademicCheck Then go to the data smartsheet to give them their numbers Disclaimers: Your student can only show progress if they have both baseline and a benchmark Progress will be shown from the last entered benchmark

Perception Activity Take 20-30 minutes! Establish: initial phase of relationship in which understanding and trust has not yet been cultivated Maintain: phase of relationship with ongoing positive interactions (already have understanding and trust) Restore: phase of relationship with negative interaction that has harmed the relationship, and there is need for reconnection and repair Use the emailed information to indicate who you think is improving in attendance, tardy to school, and work completion rates List all of your active student names This is the same link as last slide Take 15 minutes to reflect and update your perception of your Focus List. Please don’t feel the need to go into your schools database in order to find the exact numbers. We are doing this as a reflection. Your perception of student growth will correlate to their current academic progress As a trainer, please note that you only know who is improving based off of their entered data. There may be more students that are improving due to the fact that you needed to update your data (as of the 20th) or because you have students that have just started which haven’t had a chance to have a quarter or trimester of school
