iLEAD AV Studio: How to Get Started in Brightspace

Dear iLEAD AV Studio Families,

We use Brightspace as a learning tool. Through your parent portal, you can see the following:

  • Announcements and updates from your child’s facilitator
  • Feedback and progress through the grade book
  • Upcoming due dates/work to do
  • Portfolio items of beautiful work completed by your child

Here is a guide to help you get started on the platform:

iLEAD AV Water Bottles for Sale

On these hot days, it’s extra helpful to send your child to school with a filled water bottle every day. Would you like one of these beautiful iLEAD AV water bottles? Get yours from the front office for $5 each while supplies last!

Did you know? We have water refill stations on campus for your learner to use.

Please be sure to write your child’s name clearly on their water bottle, so that if it’s misplaced, we can return it.

Stay hydrated, iLEAD AV!

Schoolwide Learner Outcomes: Lifelong Learners

iLEAD is excited to introduce our new Schoolwide Learner Outcomes beginning this school year.

We believe that education should extend beyond traditional academic knowledge. Our purposeful approach revolves around the iLEAD Schoolwide Learner Outcomes, a collective vision that encapsulates our aspirations for each individual’s education.

The iLEAD Schoolwide Learner Outcomes serve as our compass, guiding us in shaping each child’s educational journey.

In the course of a child’s career with iLEAD Schools, our learners will engage with a relevant and rigorous curriculum that will prepare them for success personally and professionally.

The following are the expected Schoolwide Learner Outcomes that our learners develop:

iLEAD by being a/an…

Lifelong Learner

I am a self-directed learner, focused on personal growth and development.

Empathetic Citizen

I seek to understand and appreciate what others are thinking, feeling, or experiencing.

Authentic Individual

I am true to myself, my personality, values, beliefs, and principles.

Design Thinker

I am a creative, imaginative individual who explores original ideas, takes risks, and develops innovative solutions that I share with others.

Our September focus is Lifelong Learners. This article has several tips to help you cultivate a love for learning in your child:  “Nurturing Lifelong Learners: Cultivating a Love for Learning in Your Child.”
