Eagles Friday Update!
Lanesville Elementary School August 23, 2024
Message from Dr. Holder
Dear Eagle Community,
This week is midterm week. Our classrooms are focused on learning and supporting our Eagles. Please make sure you are signed up in Harmony to receive notifications for grades and attendance. We want to work together to keep you informed. We also need for every family to make sure that documents and demographics are updated for the 2024-2025 school year.
This week teachers will be reaching out if a student has a D or F. Our grading practice allows students to reassess if they get below a 70% on an assessment. The teachers will reteach and offer a retest. The grade can be replaced up to a max score of 80%. If a student did not put forth effort, refused or rushed then they can be given an option to redo the assessment without reteaching occurring. We also enter a 50% as the lowest grade to make sure that scores are not deflated from one grade. If you have any questions, please reach out.
Soaring when we work together!
Dr. Holder
