In this episode we talk about the things our State Representative has done in the session this year. We also discuss how others can get involved to make a difference.

In this episode we talk with the ELA department of Bear River High school Heidi Jensen, Jamie Marble, and Kelbie Jackson. We discuss how this department uses data to pinpoint student gaps. These gaps are taught to students during an intervention built into their schedule. They talk about the Utah State Standards and how they break those down to understand what students really need to know.

They talk about a Strategic Implementation Guide that helped start the conversation.

They also talk about the 4 PLC questions:

1) What do we want our students to learn?

2) How will we know if they learned it?

3) What will we do if they did not learn it?

4) What will we do if they did learn it?

In this podcast we talk to 2 teachers of the DLI program and the district director. We talk about the long term benefits for signing your student up for the program. BESD offers 4 schools with Spanish DLI and one with Chinese.

In this episode we talk to students and faculty at our schools about fundraisers and food drives done to support our local communities. Every year our school, through the help of the communities, donate tons of food to the local food pantries and thousands of dollars to local charities to help those around us. One of the great benefits of this that happens with our students is the unity to a common goal.
