Students took the mid-year IXL Diagnostic assessment at the beginning of the semester to assess their growth from both the beginning of the year and the end of the first semester. Students are also using IXL regularly in Math and ELA classes. We saw a lot of growth in January!!
It seems like we were hit by a lot of illness in January, but we still had 95 students with perfect attendance for the month! We are proud of our students for making attendance a priority this year by showing up (as long as they are fever and vomiting free!). Students with perfect attendance for the month will receive a treat this week.
The Fannie May fundraiser will continue this week with order forms (and money) being due back to the office on Tuesday, February 11. If your child needs an additional order form, they are available in the office!
Wednesday (February 5) is a 1:30 p.m. dismissal for school improvement.
Friday, February 7 is 3rd quarter midterm. Midterm reports will be provided to students with below average grades on Wednesday, February 12.
