This week Mr. Jakusik’s DP History Juniors engaged in a debate arguing whether Benito Mussolini had clear foreign policy aims or was an expert opportunist. The pressure was on when everyone met in the library for the debate, nerves were high. Then insert Mr. Morales and the DP Seniors as an audience. The Juniors pulled through, were well prepared for all of their sections, and did an exceptional job. Moving forward, the Juniors are going to look at the rise of Hitler in authoritarian Germany, Lenin and Stalin in Russia, Mao in China and several other case studies in preparation for their DP exams.

And to end with a quote since I know all of our Juniors have been doing their best to get these Quarter 1 grades up:

"Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing." – Pelé

Parents and families, this year, the Clemente IB programmes are undergoing a re-evaluation process, which occurs every five years. As part of the re-evaluation process, various members of the school community practice being reflective and complete a self-study of the IB programmes. As important stakeholders in the Clemente community, we invite you to participate by completing this brief questionnaire that we will factor into the self-study submission. The anonymous survey will help inform how the IB coordinators respond. Please respond to the questionnaire here by 11/1.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Ms. Dryjanski (MYP coordinator) at gdryjanski@cps.edu or Ms. Cales (DP/CP coordinator) at aklappa-cal@cps.edu.

Additionally, Sophomores will soon be moving onto the next component of their Personal Project. They will be investigating and researching to start answering their learning goal. Ms. Dryjanski, the MYP Coordinator, will be in US History classes starting on November 1st and continuing through November 8. Be sure to be there!

Padres y familias, este año, los programas del IB de Clemente están pasando por un proceso de reevaluación, que se lleva a cabo cada cinco años. Como parte del proceso de reevaluación, varios miembros de la comunidad escolar practican la reflexión y completan un autoestudio de los programas del IB. Como partes interesadas importantes de la comunidad de Clemente, los invitamos a participar completando este breve cuestionario que incluiremos en el envío del autoestudio. La encuesta anónima ayudará a informar cómo responderán los coordinadores del IB. Respondan el cuestionario aquí antes del 1 de noviembre.

Si tienen alguna pregunta, no duden en comunicarse con la Sra. Dryjanski (coordinadora del MYP) en gdryjanski@cps.edu o con la Sra. Cales (coordinadora del DP/CP) en aklappa-cal@cps.edu.

Además, los estudiantes de segundo año pronto pasarán al siguiente componente de su Proyecto Personal. Investigarán e investigarán para comenzar a responder a su objetivo de aprendizaje. La Sra.
