I don't care about making AYP...
I don't care about PSSA scores...
I don't care about 4Sights...
I don't care about DIBLES...
What I care about are the scores that the state doesn't look like...
Scores that put a smile on a kid's face to show their pride!
My friend came to our school knowing no English. He was a little bit hard to handle at first but wouldn't you be bored/distracted when you have no idea what anyone is saying around you for 6 hours a day? With A LOT of love and support and positive reinforcement by his AMAZING 1st grade teacher, he came down to my office to show me that he knows 14 letters in English!! He was so proud! After a BIG celebrations, a photo shoot, and selecting a book at the book fair, I walked him back to class and all his classmates were VERY excited for him and asked if I knew he could say 14 letters in English! They were so proud of him and he was BEAMING!!!
Celebrating knowing 14 letters in English is more important to me than any standardized test score ANY DAY! Just wish the state would reward such accomplishments!
