SCHOOL NEWSLETTER
Happy New Year!!! The third quarter of school begins next week, and our teachers and students are working extremely hard to meet the school improvement goals by engaging in rigorous classroom activities and assessments. As we continue to prepare for the Florida Standards Assessment (FSA). I encourage you to view the assessment dates posted on our school’s website and newsletter.
There are resources available for parents to monitor the academic progress of their children. Parents can utilize Pinnacle to check grades, assignments and attendance. Currently, we are encouraging all students to utilize iReady to prepare for the upcoming assessments. In fact, students took the iReady mid-year Reading assessment on December 7-8 and will take the mid-year Math test on January 11-12. Students who score well will be invited to our iReady Movie Night on Friday, January 15th!
Also, we will be starting in-school and after-school tutoring in February. If you have any concerns about student support, please contact the school or attend our next School Advisory Council online meeting at 6 P.M. on the second Tuesday (January 12th and February 9th). Just go to our website www.browardschools.com/markham and scroll to click on the SAC link.
If you have additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call our main office at 754-322-6950. I am more than happy to assist you!
Happy Holidays!
Sincerely,
Shedrick Dukes, Ed.S. Principal
SCHOOL NEWSLETTER
As we enter the Holiday season our staff will be putting more focus on reviewing and practicing skills that students were taught in the first nine weeks. However, we still have a lot more information for your scholar to learn. Please help by allowing your child to sit in a quiet area and read uninterrupted for at least 20 minutes every day. In addition, all students have access to iReady and can practice reading and math online for at least 15 minutes every day at home.
Our School Advisory Council (SAC) meets every month to review what we are doing to make learning better. Our School Advisory Forum (SAF) meets to discuss local and district parent concerns. SAC and SAF meet on the second Tuesday each month at 6 PM online. The link is accessible on our website at https://www.browardschools.com/markham. Our next meeting is December 8th, which is also our Magnet Showcase. We will have staff available to translate.
As always, “Thank you” to our parents and community for supporting our academic mission that every child succeeds. During the upcoming break please continue to encourage your child to read daily, eat healthy and get plenty of rest!
If you have additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call our main office at 754-322-6950. I am more than happy to assist you!
