Jump the Star Party


We ended school early today. Instead of having a staff meeting, we celebrated students who improved their scores on last year's state tests. I support efforts toward congratulating academic achievement. The kids seemed to enjoyed the food and games. I remember participating last year as well.

I do have questions though. Will kids remember a November after school celebration when they take the tests next May? Do you remember the agenda for a staff meeting six months ago? (We also went over scores with them in October, about tests that they took the previous May.)
