March Family Newsletter
March 2023
Panther Family,
I hope this newsletter finds you and your loved ones happy and healthy. Previously, I mentioned it seems time is going by rather quickly. We are three months into the new year, with about four weeks until Spring Break.
We have completed our Winter MAP (Measure of Academic Progress), and our ESOL team completed ACCESS testing for students who meet English Language Learner (ELL) eligibility this week.
As a school, we are proud of our academic success. Many classrooms successfully met or exceeded our growth targets based on Fall-to-Winter (K-5) MAP data, K-2 phonics data, and 3-5 Math data. We are proving that Park Street students are, in fact, LEARNING - GROWING - and THRIVING!
There is a lot of information to share. We look forward to seeing you for Coffee with the Principal this Friday, March 3rd. Our topic of discussion will be accessing ASPEN & Schoology to support your child. In addition, we look forward to seeing you on Thursday, March 23rd, for Park Street STEAM Night! Also, you will find information on the Emily Lembeck Early Learning Center and Cobb / Marietta Head Start Program. Please share this information with families with younger children.
Lastly, if you or any friends or family members have children ready for Kindergarten, we look forward to seeing you on March 30th for Kindergarten ROUNDUP! Please share the news with your family and friends!
So take time to review the information below. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns.
In service,
Your Proud Panther Principal,
Alex Soto
