Dear Families,
Over the past two weeks, our school has been buzzing with activity! We started the new year by reviewing expectations through station rotations, helping students refocus on demonstrating positive behaviors and staying engaged as they transition between activities. This proactive approach ensures a smooth and productive learning environment for all.
We also had the pleasure of welcoming the Principal from Sundling Middle School, who visited to support our 5th graders as they prepare for their exciting transition to middle school. This visit was an incredible opportunity for our students to ask questions, learn about their next steps, and ease any uncertainties they might have. Additionally, fifth-grade students had the chance to select their elective preferences, sparking excitement as they begin to envision the next chapter of their academic journey.
In addition to these events, our Winter assessments have been in full swing. Students in Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grades participated in FastBridge testing, which helps us monitor their academic growth and tailor support to meet their needs. Our English learners also began ACCESS testing, measuring their growth in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in English. It’s inspiring to see the determination and effort our students bring to their learning every day!
We hope you enjoy the long weekend and stay warm as temperatures are expected to drop in the coming days. Thank you, as always, for your ongoing partnership and support. Together, we are building an environment where our students feel empowered to learn, grow, and thrive.
