Reflex Update
Students are diligently working to master their fact fluency by using Reflex. Currently, our green light usage for the building is at 72%! Students should be earning a green light every time they log on. Building-wide, students have gained over 20,000 fluent facts, since the start of the year. Keep up the good work!
