A Message From Mr. Bennett
Teachers,
This week our scholars will have the opportunity to demonstrate mastery of this semester instruction through our ACP assessments. As we visit your classes this week, we will be on the lookout for active monitoring during ACP testing. What we know is scholars do better on assessments if they know their teacher is actively monitoring the testing environment. Actively monitoring involves moving around the classroom and keeping scholars aware of the time remaining as they progress through the ACP assessments. Please make sure we are setting our scholars up for success by creating a great testing environment.
Remember that EVERY INSTRUCTIONAL MOMENT MATTERS. ACP exams are the first district-wide metric that will be used to determine campus effectiveness and student growth so please treat them as such.
Thank you for all that you do. Keep up the pace so that we can finish the semester strong with the student achievement and campus cultures to match!
Here's to a great week of teaching and learning! Please reach out should you have any questions.
Leadership Matters!
Mr. Bennett
