Week of September 5, 2022
2022-2023 School wide Goals
10% Growth on ELA AND MATH on State Assessments - MSTEP
90% SCHOLAR PERSISTENCE -It is important that our scholars stay with Trix Academy in order to see the Academic Growth they need to be High School Ready!
90% STAFF RETENTION - Keeping our staff in place year after year also ensures that not only are relationships built with our scholars and families, mastery in instruction is also taking place.
95% AVERAGE DAILY ATTENDANCE - Scholars have to be in the building daily in order to learn. We want to build and foster a community of learning that values daily attendance.
A MESSAGE FROM PRINCIPAL PERKINS
16 Days until Parent Teacher Conferences and 36 Days Left in Quarter 1
Greetings Trix Parents and Scholars,
I hope everyone was able to get out and enjoy the Labor Day Holiday with family and friends. Time went by fast but now we have to get prepared to attack another week of learning. Our scholars have really hit the ground running this school year. I am proud of the behavior I am seeing and the support from parents to ensure scholars are getting into the building daily and on time. We can not do it without you!
This year we are moving to doing our Parent-Teacher-Conferences at the mid-quarter instead of at the end of quarter. This will allow parents to get a great gauge on where scholars are performing at the five week mark. Scholars will have 22 instructional days to make any academic adjustments needed to get the grades that truly show success. We are hoping to get 100% participation for our Quarter 1 Conferences.
Sign up information will be included in next week's newsletter.
Let's Make it a Great Week!!
