Growth Mindset

On November 18, 2014, SFUSD's Lizzy Hull Barnes and Ho Nguyen partnered with Carissa Romero of the PERTS lab at Stanford to bring growth mindset as content to our middle schools and high schools.  This presentation documents the research findings, as well as describing how the SFUSD Math department works to infuse our curriculum and pedagogies with a growth mindset.

Parents as Partners

SFUSD, in partnership with Chinatown community-based organizations, presented Parents as Partners on March 5, 2016! Parents learned about graduation requirements, college and financial aid, helping their children with stress and anxiety, Common Core Math, their children's rights as English Learners, and supporting children with testing! Presentations were in Chinese with English translation available.
