BLAZER NEWS AND REMINDERS
WEEK OF 7 DECEMBER 2015
Grades, Graduation, and This Year's Targets (History & Our Student Goals)
Blazer Staff:
Our Lexile focus feeds into our second goal this year ...
Although the academic focus is set on the FOUR CORES ... every course ... every discipline connects and supports every student in this goal.
In 2014-2015, 88% of all students passed all core classes (SS, ELA, Math, Sci) with a grade of 60% or higher
**This Year's Focus/Goal: 2015-2016, 90% of all students will pass all core classes (SS, ELA, Math, Sci) with a grade of 60% or higher
In 2014-2015, 44% of FARM students passed all core classes (SS, ELA, Math, Sci) with a grade of 60% or higher
**This Year's Focus/Goal: In 2015-2016, 48% of FARM students passed all core classes (SS, ELA, Math, Sci) with a grade of 60% or higher
Think about every action and tool you've used to support students.
Take a quick look at this link ... although posted in 2009 ... it has a few good ideas and tools you might have used in the past.
