This past week a team of 11 benchmarked, for reading, every student in the school. Now the teachers and administrators will be studying the results to see who should be placed in small groups for extra help in reading. Each student who is below the target score will be discussed and placed in the group where he/she will receive the support that they need. Those parents with students who need extra support will be notified this week. Small group time will begin the week of September 21st.
I am eagerly looking forward to working with this year's students. They are a great group of children.
