Spring Semester 2022 Schedule

There are 2 learning options this year for the 2021-22 school year:

Students can attend full-time at Hagerman JH/HS.
Students K-8 can attend online home school through Hagerman Joint Virtual School with Venture Upward
www.ventureupward.org

What is distance learning?

Distance learning is when students will be attending regular Hagerman JH/HS classes virtually from home. These will be requirements of distance learning students:

Students will be required to be logged on their Chromebooks during regular class start times. If students are not in attendance on their Chromebooks when class begins, they will be marked absent/tardy. Students will fall under the tardy/absence policy of Hagerman JH/HS if they chose distance learning.
Students will be required to submit and complete assignments as per the request of each Hagerman JH/HS teacher.
If students do not have internet service at home, Hagerman JH/HS will do their best to find a service option for the student. Parents and students will be responsible for picking up and turning in assignments at the school. COMMUNICATION will need to be exercised during distance learning to ensure the success of the student.

Programs at Hagerman Junior and Senior High School

Core knowledge is extremely important in every student’s development. Equally important is their ability to express themselves and learn new skills that might not otherwise be available. Click each title below to learn more about some of the electives we offer.

Every Wednesday after school, students are provided the opportunity to expand their artistic abilities by participating in the “After School Open Art Studio”. In addition to art, students come together to imagine, be creative and problem solve.

Students grades 9-12 can enroll in the high school elective Drama class where they will learn the basic structures of theatre, write skits, practice costume makeup, participate in different styles of performing, and put on a production at the end of the school year. The goal of this class is for students to become more confident and comfortable with themselves as well as speaking and in front of crowds.

Let the Learning Begin

This year a sewing class was introduced to the 8th graders. It is a trimester class, meaning I have a different set of 8th graders every 12 weeks. My first group of students made a rice bag to help with their aches and pains. They also made a candy wrapper bag where they learned how to sew a zipper into a project. They learned how to serge a seam when making their patriotic pillowcase. This group also made a tech pillow, a hot pad, and several other projects. The second group made a rice bag where they practiced their hand-sewing skills as well. They also made a Christmas Stocking. They will be sewing a toothbrush and toothpaste case, learning how to attach a bias edge. This second group will also sew a candy wrapper bag and pillowcase. In addition to some of the same projects as the first and second groups, the third group will sew some different projects for their trimester. Some of the skills that my students are developing are hand sewing, learning to sew a button on, sewing a zipper into a project, and mending clothes. They are also learning how to operate a sewing machine and a serger. Throughout the class, the students are learning how to iron and press fabric in addition to becoming experts at using a seam ripper.

Students grades 9-12 can enroll in an elective Journalism class. In this class students will learn best practices for consuming media, how to interview and write articles, as well as how to film and publish informational videos. The students in this class will share their work with a web page created and updated by the class. The goal of the class is to be able to understand the complexity of media, improve writing skills, share information, and gain confidence.

We are now in our 3rd year after adopting the AVID program into our school district in the Fall of 2017. It has been an exciting year thus far. This past Fall we have finally kicked off the AVID K-6 program, where students are being immersed on a daily basis with rigor, and study skills in the classroom every day. Our Secondary AVID Elective program, in our Jr. High, has now expanded into the 9th grade and continues to operate and become more successful offering our students the skill set and opportunities to start planning for a career after high school. So highlights from our elective classes have been Mrs. Owsley’s 7th graders creating an airport using Minecraft, Mrs. Solosabal’s 8th-grade class reads with/to elementary students, and working on career opportunities through the 4H program. They are invested in the program titled “Build Your Future”, in which they are assigned to do a job shadow project and conduct an interview of a person whose job is of interest to them. Creating a digital portfolio that can go with them into their high school years is another project in this program. 9th-grade AVID elective, also taught by Mrs. Solosabal, kicked off Spring of 2021 and will be developing a 4-year plan of classes that are needed to not only graduate high school but also help them with getting a jump on their future path after high school. 9th graders will also develop a digital portfolio that will help them in the future as they apply to college and for scholarships.

This year in science we have been able to bring in new virtual labs from Gizmo’s that give our students at Hagerman Jr./Sr. the opportunity to explore subjects like photosynthesis, cellular respiration, titrations, etc. which they would not otherwise have the opportunity to due to funding and equipment, all while meeting state requirements, and better preparing them for the state ISAT exams in the spring. Students are assigned simulated labs that inspire learning beyond a textbook.

Parent-Teacher Volunteers

Parent involvement is a great way to show your kids that you take an interest in their education; whether it be in elementary or jr/sr high school. It also sends a positive message to the student that you consider school a worthwhile cause.

Many schools are in the position to have to raise their own funds for activities. Parent volunteers are essential to organizing and chaperoning fundraising events and other school activities.

Even if you haven’t been involved in the past, it is not too late to start. Contact your child’s teacher and/or school principal to discuss how you can volunteer today!
