Eighth Grade Promotion will take place on May 29th at 6:30 p.m., look for more info coming on that also. I’m sure these things will help answer your questions about when finals will be happening when planning your summer. We will also be holding summer school intersession on June 4-7 for students in grades 3-8 who have failed one or two subjects throughout the year. There will be a minimal cost, $10, for your student to attend and you should be receiving a letter in the mail soon if this ap-plies to you.

Speaking of summer, this may be the last time this year that you hear from me, so I want to take a minute to thank you again for trusting us with your kids and for your continued support! I hope you all have a fun, safe and relaxing summer!

Sincerely,

Michelle Sobkoviak, Principal

Reteach/Enrich

Reteach and Enrich

In order to have all our kids master all of the AZ state standards in reading and math, the district has implemented a program called Reteach and Enrich. This is not a new program, as we began this program last school year. However, we felt it was important enough to review.

Each week each grade level has specific objectives that they teach in the areas of reading, writing, math, science and social studies. After the teachers have taught the objective, they give a short test to determine who has mastery of that objective and who needs a little more support to master the objective. In the areas of reading, writing, science and social studies, teachers provide in-class extension or support as needed. In the area of math, our school-wide focus, we have implemented a formal plan to extend the learning of students who have mastered the objective and support the learning of those who have not mastered the objective. This is our Reteach and Enrich program. We have blocked out 30 minutes each morning where the entire school is involved in Reteach and Enrich simultaneously.

The need for reteach or enrichment is flexible, meaning that one week your child may have difficulty with an objective and have a need for reteach support, while the next week your child mastered the objective taught and has a need for enrichment for the objective. By implementing this formal program, we are able to strengthen our math program, which is one of our school improvement goals.

If you have further questions regarding Reteach and Enrich, please feel free to contact your child’s classroom teacher anytime.
