Approaching the end of Quarter 1
As we approach the end of the First Quarter, it's critical to recognize our how important monitoring our progress is to overall success.
On November 1st, we will be 4 weeks past midmarks and ready to end the first quarter of the school year . This academic snapshot is critical to determine the academic health of our students . We now have enough information to determine where our students may be headed. 75 % of our school is moving towards earning the credits they need to graduate. Couple this information with Act 158 Data requirements, and we see a thriving school environment designed to produce amazing young people.
The October Newsletter featured several interventions to support students. More importantly, parents will have an opportunity to connect with their teachers during Fall Parent conferences. This year we want to personalize the experience by mailing flyer post cards to welcome you to the event.
Expect more information in early November regarding ways that we can partner to support our young people.
Sincerely,
Dr. McGriff
