Emerson Primary News & Notes
We are #bettertogether!
SCS Mission: Inspire, empower, and prepare our students for their best future!
Emerson's Goal
We will improve reading scores through positive school culture with 90% of students meeting their growth target as measured by mClass reading data by spring 2024.
And the Honor Goes to.....
INSPIRING!
Kelli goes above and beyond for staff and students! She stays after school to fill in as a custodian, creates the yearbook (her favorite project!!), and loves on the gecko! That just scratches the surface of what she does on a day to day basis! She loves our littles like her own and helps all of us any way she can. Thank you Kelli!
EMPOWERING!
Eden supports and encourages all students, even when it involves tough love! She is not afraid to jump in and/or take the initiative when she sees something that needs to be done. Eden builds the confidence of those around her and supports them in accomplishing their goals. As Eden continues classes to be an IS, she is a great example for students and showing everyone what she is capable of. Keep it up Eden!
PREPARING!
Allie had a goal of having a career day for students this year. She is close to accomplishing that mission! Allie wants students to be thinking about their future, knowing that having a goal(s) is one of the most important things kids can do. Making that leap from what students are doing now to what it will help them accomplish is sometimes difficult, especially given the age of our students and backgrounds of some. Alie has worked hard to help them look beyond current circumstances. Thanks Allie!
