Unmasked Uncertainty: Mask Mandates Are Gone, Now What? (Part 1)

April 22, 2022 @ 10:00 am 11:00 am PDT

Let’s share ideas about what leadership strategies are working to support our students as we navigate the end of state mask mandates.

About this event

Crowdsource Coffees are just-in-time conversations about topics relevant to leaders in the Portico community. These conversations are for school leaders to discuss shared challenges and exchange insights about what’s working as they transform the student experience and use inclusive leadership practices with their communities.

For this Crowdsource Coffee, we encourage leaders participating to take 10-15 minutes in advance to read this article from the New York Times: Vulnerable to the Virus, High-Risk Americans Feel Pain as the U.S. Moves On

We included an excerpted version
The audio included for the complete article is 12 minutes
If you only have 5 minutes or less, think about an actual, specific student at your site/district that represents your most vulnerable student population. These “profile” students will be at the center of our discussions, so please come ready to share.

Need some support right away and can’t wait for the Crowdsource? We’ve got you covered. Here are Slide deck(s) that can be adapted to fit your school’s/district’s needs and shared with your staff, students, and families right away.

Masking Update: Elementary Slides
Masking Update: Secondary Slides
If you have additional time and/or need additional support right away, we’ve compiled a list of resources for you. We encourage browsing through them and including them in your Crowdsource conversations.

Resource List For Unmasked Uncertainty: Mask Mandates Are Gone, Now What? (Part 1)

During the conversation, leaders will have the opportunity to share what they are observing and experiencing now that state masking mandates have lifted and the decisions and responsibilities have been placed on their shoulders. We will stay focused on out most vulnerable students as we brainstorm how to navigate through this time of change.

Note: We will also be holding a Part 2 session for this topic on May 6 where we will discuss our progress and help each other plan for a future in which masking may or may not exist (for this school year and the next). We hope you will join us for this follow-up event as well.
