Anne has updated the bulletin board by the office. Our school wide goals are to improve attendance, reduce the number of tardies, and to reduce the number of write ups. All three items are critical to student achievement. This article was given to teachers at data day, and it is a great read for all of our staff.

Attendance

This is a great article to reflect upon, thinking of the long term goal of college and career readiness.

High Performing Classrooms

Today is grade level teaming for first through fifth grades. We will go through intervention and enhancement groups. Feel free to bring any data you have so far, and you can bring your iPad or laptop to enter notes and intervention plans right into Milepost.

I love this picture from data day. This goes right along with our 10 indicators for our school improvement plan with the WISE Tool. These teachers are collaboratively discussing data and student intervention groups for fifth grade, and they represent all areas: ESL, Resource, Title 1, and classroom teachers.
