First graders in Mrs. Howard’s and Ms. Kathleen’s classes celebrated their latest achievements on the i-Ready Common Assessment this week with some Mardi Gras fun. Every child whose score increased or who was a level 4 in reading and math was invited to create their own Mardi Gras masks, catch some beads, and chow down on some king cake. We continue to be so impressed and proud of our students’ progress! Way to go, guys!
