What a treat it was for our G6 Ss to collect stories + ideas on @TheMVSchool #MVmantras from some of their favorite school adults last week. This week: Watch interview vids to distill more insights - then on to student interviews. #ImpactReady #journeyofpurpose

In our inaugural G6 Survey class, our teacher @knowkmd’s Ss are *leaning into* some shared questions they have about our @TheMVSchool mantras. We can’t wait to see what they see for us to make of these.

Learning #DesignThinking is not a game at @TheMVSchool - except, you know, when it is. We love to see our teacher Dr. Wass prototyping all kinds of inquiry and fun with our G8 Ss.

Our G8 Ss are getting drawn in to all kinds of #designthinking mindsets with a mirror drawing exercise. “Have Fun” and “Be Brave to Try and Try Again” were the @TheMVSchool mantras of the day, for sure.

That’s our teacher @knowKMD, channeling his inner teacher @welch79 and inviting an interview moment around #MustangRally2024 with our G5 friends. #StartWithQuestions #ImpactReady – at Sandy Springs, GA

120 G7 Ss in the gym right after lunch, and you could hear a *pin* drop as @Pfagell distilled her research around #middleschoolsuperpowers into a gaze of warmth, recognition, and the right dose of next-period wisdom.

Our inimitable MS HOS @hannon_leah23 loops us back into our summer read of @susiewise’s #DesignForBelonging today with a metaphor-making exercise around belonging. She is a real student of student experience and teacher of teachers that we all need. #dtk12chat

Ahhh, yes. Let’s ring in a winter holiday break with a (ahem) festive game of indoor 4-square in Mr. Song’s room. (Watch the language, @knowKMD….)
