Reflections from 10-17-16
This past week, administrators examined first-hand what students were learning and observed various instructional strategies to engage all learners. Consistently, we noticed positive classrooms, students engaged in coursework, teachers making relevant connections, and teachers going above and beyond to connect with students. I appreciate you for always finding the why in what you do to help our students shine. Each of you play an integral role in the success of our students, and we must strive to help each student reach his potential. There is no doubt that your positive energy, expectations, and beliefs correlate to how successful this year has started.
Keep shinning so others may see the light in you--you make a difference!
