Quarter 1 In Review

The first quarter of school has come and gone! Students and staff worked diligently learning and teaching the objectives and skills needed at all grade levels. As a staff we celebrated our successes of achieving High Growth and sustaining our School of Progress status at our first early release staff development session in July. Our school staff is motivated to make increased gains in student proficiency as we move through this school year.

We had our Open House in August and our first Title I PAC Night at the end of September. Both events had wonderful parent participation and we look forward to developing and hosting additional school wide events.

What's coming down the trail for Banks Road Elementary? More information to come about our first quarter report card proficiency data and the implementation of our school wide Team Time instructional strategy. Be on the look out for the next Principal's Desk posting :) Mrs. Graf
