  • School Changes: Reading Initiatives replacing AR/Behavior parties. Each trimester will have a reading initiative. These activities will promote reading. Each teacher will be able to choose how or whether to use AR, and incorporate reading promotion activities. Behavior reward parties will also happen once a trimester. The students will earn these opportunities based on their behavior. Students who need help with behavior will be assisted so they can be successful in the future.
  • Two all day Kindergarten sessions. Feelings have just been that there has been an adjustment. Nice option, will look at ideas for transitions for the beginning of the year.
