A huge shoutout to Emily Persilver for completing her LEAP Connect assessments with her students!

🎉DIBELS MOY to EOY Incentive🎉
In addition to the existing ZEARN rewards, we're adding new incentives to encourage students to complete their lessons! Here's how it works:
When: Starting Monday, January 6
Who: To be considered for the incentive, each class in each grade will need a minimum of 80% of their students to complete 3 or more on-grade level lessons each week. The class that has the most on-level lessons completed, with at least 80% of its students completing the lessons, will earn an extra snack from the snack cart each week.
If there is a week in pacing where only 2 lessons are taught, you will need to assign another on-level lesson during that week.
The Math teacher of the winning class will also be treated to a snack and drink from the teacher cart as a special thank you for their hard work and dedication.
We hope this new incentive will inspire even more learning and fun in the classroom! Let's get ready to make the most of ZEARN!!
Please note: We will continue recognizing HRs and updating the Zearn board each week. 😊 This process will remain the same!
We’re kicking off the second half of the year with a fun and motivating AR reading challenge! Each week, we’ll be tracking the progress of every homeroom in AR reading, and the class with the highest AR points earned in a week in each grade level will earn some awesome rewards! 🎯
The winning students will get an extra snack from the snack cart 🍪, and the reading teachers will get to pick a treat and drink from the teacher cart! 🥤🎉
Let’s hit the ground running and make reading a top priority—together, we can make this a fun and exciting challenge that encourages everyone to read more, earn points, and have a blast doing it! 🚀 Let’s go, team! 📖🌟
Please note: We will continue recognizing students and updating the AR point board each week as they advance through the levels. 😊 This process will remain the same!
