THANK YOU!
Mrs. Bamper, Mrs. DeVere, Mrs. Short, Mrs. Schein, Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Sage for allowing visitors to come to your rooms!
The visitors were impressed with the students' ability to collaborate, the high levels of engagement and the consistency they saw from classroom to classroom.
THANK YOU, to all the Staff who helped make Teacher Appreciation Week AMAZING!!! A huge thank you to Ms. Martina for getting all the donations.
Dear Adams' Fam!!
Can you believe it's down to two weeks left in the school year?! I know I've said I don't like count downs because it detracts from the fact that we still have learning time left and just makes us think about getting through - but wow two weeks! PLEASE reflect on all that you have accomplished this school year, how far you have taken your students not just in academics but socially and emotionally. I have seen our staff grow this year and overcome so much, as a result our students have grown tremendously too! This has been an extremely tough school year - but you all did it and are just about to cross the finish line and I appreciate all the blood, sweat, and tears you have put into making Adams an amazing place for our students and each other. I hope you all felt appreciated this week on teacher appreciation week, know that I appreciate what you do every day and every week! Thank you in advance for staying strong these last two weeks and making every day count!
Thanks again for all you continue to do for our students!

Adams team - We got this!

Thank you, Thank you teachers!!! You all completed the mySaebrs assessments this week. We really appreciate you. We will be emailing a list of students who need to do makeups.

In our MTSS meetings we have been discussing how to better support our students with math facts - Ms. Sage was awesome enough to share this wonderful FREE resource with us. PLEASE watch the video that she made to help you navigate the site. We know this can help all of Adams' students make some gains with their math facts. Click on the link below.
