It has been wonderful seeing so many of you over the past few weeks at the various events at our schools. We appreciate your support and want you to know that your partnership in educating your child is invaluable. Thank you!
First Trimester Target Update
Each year, collaboratively as building leadership teams, we come up with targets that align with district goals to create the best possible educational experience for our students. This year, A.W. Becker’s goals are centered on building success in reading, math, and attendance with a focus on community engagement. We are also working to steadily increase positive referrals while decreasing discipline referrals. (Our 4 Targets are always listed at the top of our newsletter each month.)
Below are our first trimester results as of December...
We are on track of meeting all four targets at this time. I'm proud of our students and staff. Thank you for your home support, as well.
School Break Learning Activities
If you are looking for something for your children to do over break, we have you covered! Below, you will find a fun reading challenge. In addition, why not remind your child to pop onto some fun, math learning games over break? You can find a variety at www.mathplayground.com.
Bringing Attendance Home, a video from Attendance Works, features parents talking to other parents about reducing absenteeism. Filmed in schools across the country, the video offers tips for parents and schools to improve student attendance.
