From the Desk of Mrs. Wise:
We had a great week back!
We started the very busy three weeks off with Acuity Assessments in Grades 3-5. Students will be tested in math and language arts. Students take Acuity three times a year. It is based upon the skills and standards at the respective grade levels. Students are expected to increase performance each time as they are exposed to more content each month. The Acuity Assessment is one resource we use to help diagnose areas of strength and growth areas. We also use it as area for goal setting for students. Next week, all students K-5 will do their middle of the year DIBELS Assessment.
A couple of friendly reminders as the busy months are coming up:
1. Please make sure your child is coming to school with a coat, hat, gloves and winter clothing. I would suggest writing your name on all items as well as checking the lost and found if items go missing.
2. Our last day will be December 16th and students will not return until Tuesday, January 3rd.
Have a great weekend! Go Colts! Beat the Jets!
Mrs. Susan Wise
