KNOW YOUR IMPACT
Congratulations on a great first semester of the school year! As we start the second semester there is always a sense of urgency...so much left to teach and learn. At Paine Elementary, I know that we make every day count and value every instructional minute. So let's be reminded to approach this second semester with a renewed and focused mindset, being purposeful in everything we do, being fully present and engaged, actively pursuing our goals, and knowing that everything we do greatly impacts our students and their success. It's going to be an IMPACTFUL second semester!
Winter AIMS Web Testing
On Tuesday, 1/7 our window will open for winter AIMS Web Literacy Testing. Beginning 1/15, our TCS testing team will begin testing all 1st Grade, Kindergarten, and 2nd/3rd ORF only.
Teachers may begin administering the assessment for 4th & 5th and the computerized portion for 2nd & 3rd as soon as students return on 1/7. Our goal is to have all testing complete by 1/24 so we can have our data meetings the following week.
ACAP Practice Test
The ACAP Practice Tests will be administered to all students in grades 2-5 the week of 1/27 - 1/31. Please mark your calendars and factor into your lesson planning. We will adhere to the formal testing process (followed in the spring) for the practice test. More information will be provided in our faculty meeting.
Wednesday Collaboration
Bring teacher materials for current/upcoming unit. We will meet in the North Training Room.
Thursday Early Release Time
All faculty & staff will participate in important MTSS training on Positive Behavioral Supports.
