Exciting News!
This summer, our Elementary Leadership Team was asked to present at the 2024 NDMTSS Conference in Fargo on their work on increasing student profieciency in math and reading.
At the August School Board Meeting, the administration was able to give that presentation to our Trenton School Board Members. The presentation was titled "Eight Mile Elementary: One School's Pathway to Proficiency", and it highlighted the innovative approaches implemented, including
the implementation of PDSA Cycles, weekly team meetings with teachers, consultants, and our student performance strategist/curriculum and instruction coach, and using multiple data points to track growth.
The data showed a significant growth in student foundational reading skills, improving students' abillity to identify main idea and supporting details, as well as improvement in overall reading skills!
We are so proud of the progress we've made and the positive impact it has had on our students!
A big thank you to our dedicated teachers, leadership team, and consultants for their tremendous hard work on this initiative. Together, we're making a difference!
