Van Brunt Elementary
February 2016
It's hard to believe we are starting second semester! It has been a great first half of our school year and I am looking forward to a wonderful second half. Students are excited to share the great books they are reading and interesting things they are learning in class.
In the month of January, students completed MAP testing in reading and math. Most students made great progress in their learning. Please take a moment and ask your child if they met their learning goal. This is also a great opportunity to ask your child about their goals for the remainder of the year and their plan for accomplishing these goals. We know that approaching learning with a growth mindset helps students work hard every day.
The Van Brunt staff appreciates the continued support of our wonderful families. The open communication and partnerships are so valuable to your child's education. As always, please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
Best Regards,
Lisa Sawyer
