2022-2023 School wide Goals
10% Growth on ELA AND MATH on State Assessments - MSTEP
90% SCHOLAR PERSISTENCE -It is important that our scholars stay with Trix Academy in order to see the Academic Growth they need to be High School Ready!
90% STAFF RETENTION - Keeping our staff in place year after year also ensures that not only are relationships built with our scholars and families, mastery in instruction is also taking place.
95% AVERAGE DAILY ATTENDANCE - Scholars have to be in the building daily in order to learn. We want to build and foster a community of learning that values daily attendance.
MESSAGE FROM PRINCIPAL PERKINS
WE ARE FIRST DAY READY!!!
To all of our Trix Academy scholars and families, welcome back to School!
I hope you had a wonderful summer relaxing, enjoying the weather and spending time with your friends and family. We're excited about the return of our young scholars for the 2022-2023 school year, and we're planning on an academically challenging and mentally stimulating year.
Tomorrow morning will be a busy morning as we welcome scholars back. We are asking families to please be strong and drop yours scholars at the main entrance of the school. I understand the need and want to walk them into the building but to keep the crowds down, it is important for parents to please release scholars at the main door and we will escort them to the lunchroom where they teachers will be waiting to receive them.
Again, mask are not mandatory this school year, however, parents are encouraged to send their scholar(s) with a mask if they so choose to. We will continue to follow all Wayne County Health Department Guidelines as pertains to Covid 19. We will update you on changes as they occur.
Please see our 2022-2023 school calendar, grade level supply list, as well as information on upcoming events and important dates below.
Let's WIN THE 2022-2023 School Year one day at a time!
See you in the AM!!
Ms. Perkins
Principal
