Miss Chirazo announces CHAS student conference, highlights Baldwin-Whitehall’s personalized learning
Summary
Miss Chirazo told the board the CHAS student conference will be Saturday, April 12 at Southpointe and described Baldwin-Whitehall’s three-tier personalized learning model, diversity statistics and takeaways the district may study.
Miss Chirazo announced that the CHAS student conference will take place on Saturday, April 12, at Southpointe in Washington County and invited board members to register by Friday. "If you wanna come with us, you can contact Maureen, but you have to be registered by Friday," she said.
The report explained that the conference will include many superintendents and education leaders and provide an opportunity for Keystone Oaks to observe other districts’ practices. As an example, Miss Chirazo summarized Baldwin-Whitehall’s approach to personalized learning, saying the district uses a three-tier model beginning with core instruction, adding targeted supports and moving to intensive interventions for students who need them. She reported district figures presented at the session, noting Baldwin-Whitehall’s enrollment, special education share and broad language diversity as context for the program’s scale.
Board members discussed the conference as professional-development and benchmarking opportunity. Miss Chirazo said she and Dr. Leonard plan to attend and encouraged any board members who are interested to register before the deadline.
The board did not take formal action on the CHAS items at this meeting; the announcement was to inform next-week agenda planning and possible member attendance.
