New Gifted Students!
We have had several new students qualify for gifted in grades 3 and 4 as they reached the 95th percentile or higher in Reading or Math!! Letters are ready to go and will be sent out this week. Teachers of those students will be notified as well.
Students in grades 2 and below keep an eye out for students who have high scores as those scores qualify your students for further testing later in the school year.
Progress Monitoring Updates
We are currently reconfiguring the progress monitoring schedules. i-Ready suggests growth monitoring no more than once a month. Once we have the schedule finalized we will send out a summary as well as calendar reminders.
Restorative Justice
Please take a moment to read a brief article about restorative justice. We will be slowly learning about restorative practices this year. This is a district initiative that is imperative to student success! Slate Ridge has been chosen as 1 of 3 schools from the district to begin training first. We hope you find this article informative. Have a great week!!
