The start of the school year has been
very smooth, and I am pleased to report that our students are very happy at
their new school and in their new classrooms.
I am thrilled to be here and see them learning from their teachers and
sharing their knowledge with classmates!
The Importance of First
Grade:
It all
begins here. First grade is the first
grade level that is a requirement for all students to attend. First grade is where students continue to
learn how to read and write well. First
grade is where students understand basic math facts. In fact, we will have a math facts program at
our school that is part of the district math facts requirements. Because of the importance of first grade, we
are grateful to you for your involvement in your child’s education. We are working on our beginning of the year
assessments as well as CELDT testing in the next two weeks. We look forward to getting these results as
it will help us better meet the needs of our students! As you can see, we are moving and shaking at
Roosevelt!
