FROM THE DESK OF PRINCIPAL HERRING
March 2, 2023
Greetings Ardmore Family,
Our third quarter's progress report is completed! Ardmore continues to make great strides in safety and instruction. Our parents are a great part of our success in Education. We have been celebrating "Read across America Week" at Ardmore and the students are excited about reading. Our volunteers have been coming in to read to students; today we had our partner, Officer Taylor, from the Glenarden Police Department read to our first grade classes. He has been very supportive and a reliable resource. Thank you, Officer Taylor!
Our picture day is scheduled for March 8, 2023. Please have students dress appropriately for their choice of picture. In addition, on March 8th, we will cheer on our fifth graders while they take the Math Integrated Science Assessment (MISA) March 8th through March 13th. Parents of fifth grade students are asked to prepare these students for testing daily and keep them “STRESS FREE!”
During the month of March, we will be celebrating our Irish American partners, Women, and Arts Education in Schools. We must continue to promote diversity in our schools.
