Mrs. Price has selected 5th grade student Kenzie Wheeler-Conklin as the student of the week. Kenzie is new to TAS this year. She had a bit of a rocky start adjusting to her new school, which has made her success since then all the more impressive. Since arriving, she has proven to be a kind, compassionate and hardworking student. She always tries her best and treats everyone with respect. Kenzie lives with her parents and two siblings along with her two dogs and six fish. Kenzie loves her pets, and animals in general, and hopes to be a veterinarian when she grows up. Keep up the excellent work Kenzie, your teachers at TAS are so proud of you!

Q: What is the process TAS went through to determine their essential standards?

A: Starting in the fall of 2019, TAS went through a research-based multi-year process to determine which state standards would be given more priority.

The process included:

1. Using the REAL method to determine the most important standards: readiness, endurance, assessed, leverage

2. Started with math and ELA

3. Essential standards were compared in grade level bands and then across K-12 to ensure alignment/nothing was missing.
