Principal's Prose
Greetings Team,
I hope you had a restful and productive weekend! As we all know, the coming week marks the first of our spring state assessments in the form of the STAAR, and and fifth round of common assessments. Our 4th and 5th grade teachers have worked tirelessly to prime our students for the "prime time performance" we all look forward to, and CA5 will give us an adequate measure of what’s to come for us all. The reality of "it takes a village", it is apparent, and the path forward to our student’s SUCCESS must be cleared and paved by us ALL!
This week, our simple, single minded goal is to provide the perfect setting for a peak performance from OUR students! I especially emphasize OUR, as it will take a maximum effort from us all. If your individual assignment calls for you to administer an exam to students, OUR success DEMANDS that you are excellent in your practice. With a watchful eye, flawlessly monitor our testers as if their failure is not an option. If you are mentoring a student, intentionally check in to remind them how much you care, and express your excitement for their success. If you feel called to do something extraordinary for OUR students, do it; as the time for support, confidence and encouragement is now. Lastly, in any role you play this week, great or small, play it to "perfection" as we must ALL invest in the expected return of success our students deserve!
In short, the season to show and prove is now! The opportunity to write the Sudie TAG STAAR narrative starts this week, as we are all characters in Sudie TAG: Chapter 1....A Love Story! ❤️ Read up, rest up and gear up for what's to come, as it is going to be a great ride this week at our dear Sudie TAG!
Sincerely,
MJ
