How Do We Measure StudentAchievement?
• It’s always more than scores!• It’s about individual progress toward standards• It’s about individual progress toward personal best
• It’s about discovering the learning style of each child and creating many ways for children to show their understanding

Our 21st Century Learners
Our children are your children and the world for which we prepare them is different as are the tools they will need to be successful. While we remain committed to the traditional 3 R’s, we also recognize the value in a new core of R’s:
• RIGOR
• RELEVANCE• RELATIONSHIPS

Where Are We Going?

Learning Targets
• We are implementing Proficiency Based Grading
with JumpRope
• We are continuing our inquiry into successful
instructional interventions through Response to
Intervention
• We are continuing to embrace our core values and
the Responsive Classroom philosophy.
