District details testing season, school-improvement incentives and TK enrollment
Summary
Administrators outlined the district's three‑year school improvement plan focused on ELA, math, science and attendance, described incentives (snacks and grade‑level parties) to boost student effort on assessments, and confirmed TK has all 20 slots filled.
A school administrator outlined the district's revamped three‑year school improvement plan and the effort to increase student motivation for state and district assessments. "We're gonna have snacks for all of our kids when they take the test because we know when kids are working, they need energy and that helps them," the administrator said, describing practical supports and incentives tied to grade‑level goals.
The administrator said grade levels that meet their goals will hold celebratory parties, staff and boosters will help supply items, and the district will hold a kickoff assembly with a Star Wars theme on May 4 to focus attention on testing week. The report also confirmed the transitional kindergarten (TK) program has all 20 slots filled for next year and that the district had 30 families attend a kindergarten roundup event.
