Our CBA 2nd grade and First Grade Cluster exams are showing marked improvement in student success on the math benchmarks. I thank you for your use of Target the Question and the use of motivational reading strategies in our classrooms.
This Wednesday we will be holding professional development at Slack computer lab for all teachers. Our topic and presentation will cover I Station Reports, Data, and how we apply the data to make changes to our small group instruction. We are very excited about this day and look forward to a successful day.
