MOBIUS UPDATEWhat is happening at

UCA?

So what

has

happened

since our

Renewal

Celebration

?

In viewing this presentation, it is our

hope that you will have a glimpse of some of the many

activities the Board and Leadership Team

of UCA have addressed since our

Celebration of Renewal Meeting on November 29, 2012.

The results handout given to each of you at that meeting is duplicated for

you on the slides. The colored circles indicate which of the 5 Disciplines is being addressed as was indicated in

the Organizational Assessment completed from the Focus Groups

meetings.

A large values banner paintedby Mrs. DeLaBruere

is hanging in the cafeteria

Posters which are duplicates of the banner are hanging in

each classroom and throughout the school

The Leadership team has helped to bridge the gaps between the Board, the faculty and the parents. Defining

roles and authority has been part of the

process.

Each member has embraced the MOBIUS process – but we are all

still learning – and there is much left to do

!Each of these

responsibilities takes considerable attention and time – and all the

meetings are in addition to everyone’s

full time jobs….

The Leadership team has met most Mondays

for 90 minutes – and has been very busy!!

Mission Statement The mission of United Christian Academy is to provide a Christ centered education to students K-12 from the Northeast Kingdom as well as internationally. We are a unique multi-denominational school with Catholic and Protestant students, faculty and staff. Our unity lies in requiring all families to be open to the Christian faith and desiring all students to come to a personal faith in Jesus Christ

MISSION STATEMENT (con’t)

UCA is seeking students who want to be challenged by high academic and moral standards, which include a commitment to community service. We strive to partner with families and to have them be active participants in all aspects of our school in order to bring about a sense of belonging in the educational process.

Using the Four Fold way, Julie has been

encouraging teachers to look at conflicts

from another perspective and has

mediated several conflict situations

Meetings…..>Pre-set agendas>Action plans define champions and time accountability>Time is respected>Ground rules encourage productivity and respect for each other

SCHOOL JOY

can we do to address what is

missing?”
