On behalf of all of the staff at Blackford Ms. Frese and Mrs. Jasper would like to send a huge thank you out to all of the families who were able to make it to Back-to-School Night. We sincerely appreciate you being there. If you weren't able to make it we completely understand as well. Please don't hesisate to ask your student's teacher or one of us about anything you may have missed or if you have questions.

The scores are in!  This year’s scores are better thought of as a starting point or baseline for the progress we expect students to make over time. We see these tests as an academic checkup. Similar to class assignments and report cards, they are just one measurement in a set of tools on student progress used to provide you and your child’s teacher(s) with information about your student’s work toward the high goals we have set.

This year we will be hosting family information nights to help families understand the shift to Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in mathematics. We will examine the different ways that students are doing math in Common Core classrooms so parents know what to expect when their child enters a certain grade. We will provide tips and resources for supporting students in CCSS mathematics. Please join us on Monday, November 2nd from 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm at Blackford or Thursday, November 5th from 8:00 am - 9:30 am at Rosemary. We look forward to seeing you there.
