We held a staff meeting last Wednesday and teachers spent time analyzing language arts and math data from the last three years. Looking closely at our trends, we set new goals for this year. We expect all of our subgroups to attain a minimum increase of 15% proficiency over last year's results. All teachers have identified their students by name and by need so that they can differentiate instruction for students who are experiencing achievement gaps as well as those needing to be challenged. At Rivera, every student counts!
We are looking forward to our first HOWL Awards Assembly on Monday, September 14. Our first Book Fair also begins next week. We have an awesome PTA this year and they have great plans for our school. They are launching a Capri Sun recycle campaign next week so please remind your children to put their empty Capri Sun pouches in the recycle container. Our first PTA meeting is next Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. in the Rivera Library and I encourage you to attend. The meetings run approximately one hour. You will learn a lot about the exciting plans our PTA has for our school.
