Third Grade Update
STAR Reports
Our students took the STAR Reading, STAR Math, and/or STAR Early Literacy, depending on the student's grade. A STAR Parent Report is coming home today (9/16/2016).
Here is a link to information about the Parent Report.
If you need any help in reading the reports or have questions in general, please ask your child's teacher.
Behavioral Update
This school year is off to a tremendous start. I feel a deep sense of community, which I am proud of. Thanks for everyone's support in making our school the best it can be. Your involvement in your child's education means a lot to us.
Our goal this quarter was to do the preventative and positive work centered on relationship building which would result in no more than 33 office discipline referrals. Thus far we had 6, which means that we are on target to meet that goal! Another goal was to reduce the office discipline referrals that relate to physical aggression to no more than 9. I am very pleased to report that as of today, we have 0 office discipline referrals related to physical aggression!
