As we practice physical-distancing and closed schools until at least April 30th, we are choosing to value connection, community, and love in whatever ways possible. We see this in the ways our teachers are connecting to students, even though there is no shared physical classroom.
At KIPP we often say: “Find a way or make one.” The last few weeks have undoubtedly tested this core principle. But thanks to our committed teachers and leaders, we have found a way to safely ensure students receive food, a way to close a significant hardware gap, a way to navigate unfamiliar tech platforms for our lessons…
Our newest art installation was interrupted by stay-at-home guidance, but we look forward to sharing it with you! Self(ie) Love is an exhibition exploring ideas of identity and self love, showcasing work created by artists ranging from ages 5 to 13.
Many teachers are making sure their students have a resource to keep them moving and taking deep breaths, and using positive affirmations to help navigate the stress and varying emotions during this time. We’re so grateful for these special teachers!
KIPP Chicago essential employees, such as food service workers and custodians and volunteers, have worked hard to ensure our students and families continue to have two meals a day. Each day, all viable schools open from 9am-1pm to pass out pre-packaged meals for families. We are incredibly appreciative of their work!
We loved welcoming teachers into our Children’s Museum of Art and Social Justice for our first two wellbeing workshops: watercolor and yoga. We are currently working on continuing our teacher wellness workshops online.
