Student Learning in Action!
Principal's Message
Last week was a tremendous week of successes! All attributable to you and your continued efforts. May this week be just as fruitful!
We are a multiple measures school district and the measures we gauge student achievement are the following:
- MAP Growth in tested areas
- STAAR
- TELPAS
- PANORAMA Survey
- Grade Level Priority Standard Assessments
As we schedule for your summative conferences, be prepared to speak to each of these points and present how your class is growing, what your end of year target aims are and will be.
Have a great learning week with your kids!
With love, respect, and admiration,
Rachel Martinez
