Welcome back! I hope everyone had a wonderful winter break and enjoyed some quality family time. It's been a great first week back from winter break. The teachers have been reviewing procedures and routines with students. Students and staff are ready for a great 2
nd semester!!!
2015 ISTEP Results: The Indiana Department of Education released ISTEP scores to all school corporations in the state. There are 290 public school corporations in Indiana. The results that follow represent our ISTEP performance on the spring 2015 administration of that assessment when compared to all other public schools in the state.
- Overall pass rate for combined math and language arts: 3rd in the state (our highest ranking ever)
- Overall pass rate for language arts: 4th in the state (our highest ranking ever)
- Overall pass rate for math: 1st in the state (our highest ranking ever)
We are so proud of our students for their high achievement and celebrate the efforts of our staff who work tirelessly to help our students grow and achieve at a high level. We also appreciate all the wonderful parent support we receive each day from our great volunteers we have in the building to the countless parents who take time to review math facts, check homework daily, and read with their child at night. It definitely is a team effort.
Report Cards: Report cards are now available through Powerschool. Please log on and check out your child's report for the 2
nd 9 weeks. Kindergarten report cards were sent home today in a manila envelope.
Please sign and return your child's report card with the envelope by Friday, January 22nd if possible.
Thanks! Have a great weekend!

The next steps on your student's educational journey...
Brownsburg teachers and staff work every day to make sure your student is having a positive experience in school, and we know you are mindful of your student's current and future educational journey. Join us January 21, 2016 as Brownsburg Community School Corporation Assistant Superintendent, Kat Jessup, and Brownsburg High School Principal, Bret Daghe, share information about the many opportunities your student will be able to experience as they move forward from elementary to middle school to high school. Mrs. Jessup and Mr. Daghe will cover a variety of topics including: the different diploma types offered, Advanced Placement classes, Dual College Credit, Area 31 technical offerings, secondary math progression, fine arts, club opportunities, job training for life skills students, and more. We hope you can make it for this discussion to help prepare your family for what's next.
