Getting & Staying Out of AYP
School In Program Improvement Efforts

Literacy Support:  Over the last week, many of you have shared how you're using the support materials from Heather, as well as Quizdom.  It's rewarding to see and hear your excitement about these tools. 

Math Support:  Hot off the presses, Michelle Fox has provided our building with Math Intervention Binders - one per grade level.  I haven't had a chance to review them, but if you're interested in taking a look let me know.  How should we make these accessible to everyone - perhaps the Math Rep could be the keeper?
