Park Street Family,
I hope this newsletter finds you and your families well. Please take a moment to read all the information below. Some of the information may be repetitive. However, I hope the information is delivered promptly and consistently to all Park Street families. Never hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns.
Final week of MAP assessment:
Students take the NWEA MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) assessment for various reasons, primarily to measure their academic progress. Also, to guide our instructional practices. MAP measures a student's individual growth in math, reading, and science over time (Fall, Winter, and Spring).
- If you have questions about NWEA*MAP, don't hesitate to contact Assistant Principal Mr. Johnson. ijohnson@marietta-city.k12.ga.us
ACCESS:
The WIDA ACCESS is a mandated assessment for all ESOL students to measure social and academic proficiency in English. A letter was sent home on Thursday, January 4, that provided information about this assessment. The testing window opens on January 10 and closes on March .
- If you have any questions about ESOL or the WIDA ACCESS, please get in touch with Assistant Principal Mrs. Madden. cmadden@marietta-city.k12.ga.us
Over the past 3 years, Park Street has and continues to see significant increases in academic achievement. Our collective success is due to our excellent teachers' hard work and parent support. On behalf of the entire Park Street Staff, Thank you for your continued support. Never hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns.
In service, your Proud Panther Principal,
