102 KNOW: ISSUE 1 (CLICK TO VIEW)
Happy New Year!
We’ve done tremendous work these past few months and it’s nice to see in our latest School Quality Guide that our rating for STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT is now “Excellent”, the highest possible. Everyone wants excellence, but few attain it because it simply requires more effort than what most are willing to give. Our students excel because of you, and I know how hard you all work each day and I can’t thank you enough.
As we shift gears into the 2nd half of the school year, it’s important that we take a closer look at our impact for each individual student. We need to find out how much or how little each of our student is learning this year, and then make sure all parties–school, student, family, guidance, etc.–are fully informed.
Tomorrow all teachers will begin our Monday professional learning in the auditorium to get a reminder on academic policies, and teachers in K-5 stay learn about our new quick+easy progress reports. All other staff should also work on communicating student progress with families at the midpoint of marking period 2.
HIGHLIGHT:
Our ENL team’s Herculean efforts to support all of our ENL students are finally recognized as we are rated “EXCELLENT” in ensuring progress for this challenging subgroup of students. Thank you for your hard work.
THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW:
SICK STUDENTS: Please make sure that any students with symptoms involving diarrhea and/or vomiting MAY NOT return class and must be sent home. Should there be any concerns, speak with an AP and they will assist with having the child picked up.
102 KNOW: The first school newsletter for families will be sent home tomorrow. See above for the digital version. Thank you for your work on the grade-level newsletter and we will soon begin incorporating highlights from each grade’s newsletter into 102 KNOW
COLD WEATHER: We have tons of jackets for students. Please do not hesitate to offer students one.
WHY TC? As we proudly shared in our inaugural 102 KNOW, our school is seeing great gains in the state ELA exam. So why change from ReadyGen to TC?
