Mrs. Marvin's Corner
The 2018-2019 School Year ended with a fun-filled day of Field Day, Tug of War, Mrs. Weyer's Retirement Luncheon and an afternoon of fun and games with ice cream and popsicles. We dodged the predicted weather the entire day and the teachers and students had a great time playing outside. It is a little bittersweet to have the 2018-2019 School Year come to a close. It was an amazing year by many standards and we are grateful to everyone who in some little way helped us to achieve our many goals this year as a school. The last week of school "Rocked" with the announcement of St. Mary's Preschool receiving their 5 STAR Step Up To Quality Rating and Brooke Bowling receiving a Second Place in the State for the Elk's Writing Contest. What happens the day after the last day of school. We start planning for the 2019-2020 school year. The Maintenance Department has already been busy getting the building ready for deep cleaning and the office is busy planning activities and schedules for the start of school.
As a school, we say good bye to Mr. Crawford who will be joining Rittman Schools as a Fifth Grade Math Teacher and Varsity Girls Basketball Coach. Mrs. Meier will returning to graduate school this coming year to pursue a Master's Degree in Social Work. Mrs. Sword will be pursuing other interests. We are excited with the new staff who will be joining us this fall. We will be announcing them in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!
MAP Progress Reports went home with your children this week with report cards. MAP testing helps the staff Progress Monitor our instruction and your child's progress towards the standards. If you would like to further discuss your child's end of the year progress please call the office and set up an appointment or I can answer questions over the phone. The MAP test is a progress monitoring tool. We have access to the student profile report which gives us a breakdown of the tests taken and areas to focus on that are specific to your child. The test has over 200,000 questions that are randomly generated for each child and your child's RIT score is unique to the questions they were asked to respond to.
Our office will officially be closed on Wednesday, June 5th. We will be open from 8AM-12PM until then. After June 5th, the school phones will be transferred so you will be able to leave messages. I am available throughout the summer to answer questions. The school office will open August 1st until then have a safe and happy summer.
Stay tuned for what's coming up in 2019-2020!
