All:
The administrators met with the 6th grade teachers today and gave them PSSA scores that I found on PDE website from 1996 (Yes 1996) and from 1999/2000. It was interesting to see our growth in the last 13 years. Kudos to all who have been here for 13 years or 13 minutes you hard work is paying off. Every year from 1996 on is on the website in case you get snowed in this weekend. The scores reflect 8th grade results for most years until we went to 6th and 7th grade in last few years.
The 6th grade seemed extremely fired up at 730 this morning when I presented this (not) but I know they were fired up internally! The sixth grade is working on many initiatives to set records on this year's PSSA test. Feel free to ask them and they will tell you!
We will meet will the rest of you within the next month in teams to discuss grade specific needs.
Kudos to those who will present at the PMSA conference during the 1st week of March along with some of the administrators on our data team, student success groups, quarterly goal setting, and team's use of data. This is a tribute to the entire school. They will be a part of two separate workshops.
Tomorrorrow we will look at MAP data for all the students. If you need a password please let Mr. H___ or myself know. This will assist us in determining the next 6 weeks' needs.
The MAP program coordinator and I visited the after school program today and it was so wonderful to see
about 50 kids working so hard between the hours of 3-4 in such a positive atmosphere.
The technology staff hooked up the software for our student response systems on the cart in the library. Ms. R___ and Ms. S___ are beginning to update mathletics games. So feel free to give them input into needs of those games.
Next week will take us from days 23-18 to PSSA so please give me input to what you feel you need to be ready and anything I should add to these messages that I am missing.
Assistance is being procured to assist administrators during the testing window.
Thanks,
PSSA HQ
