First, I’m looking for a volunteer to share their MySchools log in info so I can go behind the scenes and see what you all are seeing in real time. Of course I won’t share any personal info. If you’re willing, please let me know and many thanks.
Ok, back to Beacon related info. In the past 5 schools shared a single essay: Beacon, ICE, School of the Future, East Side Community, and University Heights. Looks like Beacon is keeping the same essay prompt but having it done in person. Here is the prompt and grading rubric: https://www.beaconschool.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=604580&type=d
We will see if the other 4 schools who used those same essay prompts in the past: East Side Community, School of the Future, ICE, University Heights, will keep the same set up - submitting essays through MySchools and the same prompts.
