PBIS - Bulldog Strong monthly theme “R” is January

PCBL - Personalized Competency Based Learning, Adam just recently attended the District sponsored Knowledge works meeting. He explained the change in student grading coming to the schools in our district.  Students will be assessed on curriculum  knowledge in a variety of ways: oral test, project, written test, etc… There was a discussion council members asked if the end of the year testing would stay the same or change. Council members could see the value in the change, because all students do not learn the same, so to test on curriculum content in a variety of ways seemed logical. Questions were asked on the grading scale and on the implementation date.  This information will be coming.

New digital sig Marquee for all the schools. - Another communication piece council was very happy.
