From the Principal's Desk
Thank you to all of the parents who came out to parent teacher interviews last week. There were a lot of really meaningful conversations between parents and teachers about how we can support our students to be as successful as possible.
This week coming up is our next 5 week assessment and our first 10 week assessment. This means that all grades in the Jr/Sr high will be up to date on Monday and Elementary students will also be able to see their current progress in their classes. It is important to be aware that Elementary parents may see a number attached to their child’s grade. Please only look at the letter as an indication of student progress as it tells you where your child is currently achieving. It is also important to note for Elementary students that this is an indicator of where they are at now. The purpose of the 10 week assessments is to report on progress and improvement throughout the year. We encourage all parents to reach out to the school should you have any questions about these assessments.
