Connect Community Charter School

Sheriff Christina Corpus spoke to our 8th grade graduating class. It was so great to hear her story and life lessons.

Shout out to Sherwin Williams for sending us a volunteer team to paint our doors and the inside trim of our classrooms. We are so grateful for this improvement to our campus.

We are trying to raise $3,000 for the Music Program at Connect. Can you help?

Mr. Trey!

🍎Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! 🍎Throughout our school partnerships, we’ve worked with thousands of amazing teachers. And truly, we’re impressed by every single one of them. This week, we’d like to take the opportunity to highlight three in particular who have embraced global competence to transform their classrooms this year.

Today we’re shouting out Treyvon Manning, a grade 1-2 teacher at Connect Community Charter School in Redwood City, CA. He cultivates a welcoming and rigorous classroom that centers strong student relationships and collaboration. He always encourages students to commit to the process of continuous learning and reflection while balancing high expectations with lots of support. Because of this, his students approach academic challenges with enthusiasm and joy. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week, Treyvon!

Connect is still enrolling for the fall for all grades.

Readers theater in Mr. Trey’s class. So much progress with reading this year!

Connect lost a valued member of its community last week. Ms. Ma was a kind spirit who was so dedicated to her students and her own family. She was pretty new to teaching, and making so much growth in helping her students progress towards their learning goals. There won’t be a public memorial or funeral, but you can come by Connect to add kind words or tokens to her altar in the next week if you have anything you’d like us to pass along to her family.

7th Graders made plans about how to reorganize their classroom space then got to work changing things around. Earlier this year, they worked out how to get a couch to make their classroom more homey.
