Focus and Accountability
Parents,
This second semester in school is challenging and rigorous as we are preparing for the STAAR test in April and getting your child ready for 5th grade! Please encourage your child to stay focused in school and always try their best. This is also the time of year we (teachers) notice grades beginning to slip as they do more independent work vs. group/partner work. The students seem to be in a hurry to "just be done" with their work - therefore, they are making simple mistakes, however, causing their grade to suffer. If a student receives a grade below a 70, they have the opportunity to correct their mistakes.
If you have any concerns about how your child is performing in class, please email us to let us know and we would be more than happy to have a phone conference or face-to-face conference with you.
We want to make sure your child has everything they need to be successful this year. Thank you for all your support at home.
