M-STEP RESULTS: GRADES 4-6
We are writing to inform you that if your child participated in MSTEP, Michigan’s statewide exam, in the Spring of 2023, their results were mailed home last week. The M-STEP expects students to demonstrate critical thinking and problem-solving skills and show their work in an age-appropriate way. In order to interpret your child’s score report The Michigan Department of Education has created documents to assist, which can be found here.
As we learn more about our district’s results, we will be able to make decisions that will help improve instruction. This is one measure of student achievement. We always use multiple measures to assess students in an ongoing way throughout the school year to identify student strengths, areas of need, and design instruction accordingly.
Please let us know if you have questions about the M-STEP, Michigan’s learning standards, or your child’s progress overall. Fraser Public Schools provides personalized instruction for our students in order to meet each child’s learning needs, and we appreciate your collaboration in that journey.
ATTENDANCE MATTERS
This year, we're working hard to advance student success by reducing chronic absenteeism. At the end of each month, our team will be reviewing student attendance and will be setting up meetings with families whose students have missed 10% of our school days. During these meetings, we will be creating success plans in an effort to help improve student attendance.
Students who miss 2 days of school in September often go on to become chronically absent. To maintain satisfactory attendance and to create good attendance habits that can last a lifetime, students should strive to miss no more than 9 days per year (or less than 1 day per month).
