We are required to implement specific levels of instruction in order to achieve AYP . We want all of our students performing on proficient and advanced levels, therefore, our  teachers are challenging their students daily with higher level thinking.

Text Box: more complex, sophisticated testing instrument than we have ever administered. We are working diligently with all of our students to insure that they are performing at their full potential. You can help your child by making sure they are at school every day possible. Also encourage them, help them with their homework, read with them every night, ask them how and why questions, and support your child’s teacher with visits. When we do our part, your child will achieve. When you are involved, your child soars to new heights.
