From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
I hope all of you enjoyed your long weekend!
The Teachers had two very busy days last week. On Thursday, we were all here working with our MAP scores and ITBS scores to continue our work on differentiation in the classroom. No two children come to us at the same level. We, as educators, need to teach the standards required of us, yet discover ways to challenge those students who need "a little more" and make sure we are meeting the needs who "need a little more guidance". I think our teachers do a fantastic job with differentiation! They always have your child's needs in the forefront when teaching!
On Friday, the staff spent the day down at the Wisconsin Center at the Archdiocesan Teacher's Convention. The teachers all attended 3 sessions of the their choice on a variety of teaching strategies, Data collection, classroom management, etc. culminating in a wonderful keynote by Tony Frontier. It was a great day!
It's NOT too late to sign up to walk with St. Anthony on Saturday, October 20, in the Souls For Education Walk. Please see the link below.
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel
