NYSSB Guidance Toolkit
To assist schools in implementing a NYSSB program, OBEWL, in collaboration with the NYSSB Task Force and the Mid-West and Mid-State RBERNs, have created a NYSSB Guidance Toolkit that contains a series of self-guiding modules. These modules, consisting of agendas, videos, presentation slides, and supporting documentation, can be used by the NYSSB Committee within a single school or among schools in a consortium looking to implement, improve, or expand their programs.
Current modules exist for the following topics:
The modules that make up the NYSSB Guidance Toolkit are designed to be used sequentially for schools that are in their first few years of offering the Seal of Biliteracy, however, even schools that have multiple years' experience awarding the Seal will find the information contained in the Toolkit useful to improve and expand upon their Seal programs.Ìý Schools may also choose to view a single module based on a particular need.
Additional modules are currently in development.Ìý For any questions on the NYSSB Guidance Toolkit, please contact Candace Black at candace.black@nysed.gov.
The NYSSB Guidance Toolkit is provided by the Office of Bilingual Education and World Languages at the 91°µÍøÆƽâ°æ for the exclusive use of high schools, consortia of high schools, BOCES, and RBERNs in 91°µÍøÆƽâ°æ implementing, considering implementation, or assisting other NYS schools in starting a NYS Seal of Biliteracy Program.Ìý All rights reserved.
