- Predict proficiency for Reading, Language Arts, Math and Science
- Screen students to identify risk for academic failure
- Measure academic growth within and across years
- Monitor progress on state standards and Common Core standards
- Analyze student performance using reports that show proficiency, state and national percentiles, percent correct, item difficulty, and content mastery
Secret Person Project (Week of December 16-20)
Dear Parents,
In celebration of the holiday season, students will choose a secret person to shower with small gifts and kindnesses. Each child in our class has filled out a survey about their interests and likes – your child’s secret person’s survey is attached to this letter. This survey is meant to help your child to create and select gifts for their secret person.
Each day we would like your child to do something nice for their secret person. In addition to this kindness, we have planned a list of gifts for the students to share with each other. If for any reason your child is unable to participate, please let me know ASAP.
