Elementary School
From the Desk of Mrs. Bickings
What an exciting start to the school year it has been! Our students have come back energized, eager to learn, and already making great strides—not only academically but in their confidence and independence as learners.
One of our key focus areas this year is strengthening literacy instruction across all grade levels. Teachers have been implementing high-impact strategies that support reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and a love for reading. It's been inspiring to visit classrooms and see students immersed in learning and building the foundational skills they need to become lifelong readers and writers.
Equally exciting is the work students are doing around goal-setting. Each student is learning how to set meaningful, achievable goals to increase their reading fluency. They're tracking their progress, celebrating their growth, and learning the power of perseverance and ownership over their learning.
This kind of focused, intentional work doesn't happen by accident. It’s the result of dedicated educators, supportive families, and students who are rising to the challenge. We’re incredibly proud of the progress we’re already seeing, and even more excited about where we’re headed together.
As always, thank you for your continued partnership. Let’s keep the momentum going and make this a year full of growth, discovery, and success for every student.
