The Warrior Way
Week of February 1st
Making Gains!
I have been looking closely at our Evaluate scores over the past week and I am encouraged with the growth we are showing. I appreciate your focus and willingness to adapt and be flexible in order to meet the needs of our students. Everyday that you spend with your students is important and I see the value you place on providing high quality instruction on a daily basis. I am confident that together we are going to continue to see growth in all of our students.
I know I've talked to many staff members about my school visit last week and the motivation and encouragement it has given me. The school I visited was the lowest performing school in their district just 8 years ago. They were considered the "black sheep" because of those scores and some of the struggles they had within the building. They had and still have the highest free and reduced rate in their district. Their transient rate was and still is extremely high and they have a very high ELL population. Eight years ago they decided collectively that they were going to change their story and the issues that had helped them to earn the "black sheep" label were not going to hold them back. That school is now the highest performing school in their district and in the top 5 of the entire state. I have faith in our staff and the steps we are taking to improve each day. We will continue to set our plan and map out the keys to success for our building. I could not be more excited to be on this journey with each of you!!
Proud to be a Warrior,
Jeff
