First Afternoon of Affinity/Alliance Spaces and WAY-R Time
On Wednesday, IS students spent their Community Time in affinity/alliance spaces and chatting about their WAY-R (What Are You Reading?) books. Affinity/alliance spaces are opt-in gatherings that allow students with shared identifiers and causes to come together. Wednesday’s first meetings were opportunities to foster community, plan ideas for future meetings, and have fun. In addition, many IS students spent the time catching up on their WAY-R books. Now in its fourth year, WAY-R is the IS’s independent reading initiative that started in English classes and is now woven through the school day.
