Dolly exemplifies unwavering support at Boys & Girls High School, demonstrating patience and adaptability in response to the evolving vision for attendance improvement. Dolly’s strategic oversight and role as a thought partner are invaluable during this crucial time of transformation in practices. Terrence M. Paulin, Brooklyn North High Schools Chief Operating Officer, emphasizes how instrumental Dolly and the CIS team have been in shaping effective school attendance strategies, particularly through the successful implementation of mentoring interventions.
Through her ability to foster active listening and develop strong connections within the school community, Dolly has effectively repurposed existing resources to elevate attendance conversations and initiatives.
One of Dolly’s standout achievements is the system she created for tracking the CIS team’s interactions with chronically absent students. This initiative facilitates continuous improvement in practice and ensures thorough follow-up with students. The School Administration has been so impressed by this system that it has been designated as the preferred practice for the attendance team moving forward.
Additionally, Dolly’s significant contributions were recognized at the Brooklyn North district meeting, where she shared her innovative practices with administrators from across the borough. Let’s extend our heartfelt congratulations to Dolly and the entire CIS team at Boys & Girls High School for their steadfast dedication, openness to coaching, and relentless pursuit of success.
While we have made significant strides, there is still much work to be done, and we know that together, we have the power to achieve great things.
