MARCH SCHOOL NEWSLETTER

WELCOME FROM YOUR PASSIONATE PRINCIPAL

Dear Parents and Community Members,

Happy March! The English Language Arts (ELA), Writing, Math and Science FSA Assessments and the End of Year exams will be administered in April and May. This month serves as our last push to review and practice the skills that students may need to improve, so we call it “Crunch Time”.

You can help your child to be prepared by making sure that they read for at least 30 minutes each night without interruptions from television, video games or background noises. This will help them to build up the stamina that is needed to read long passages that they will see on the assessments.

All grade levels are planning end of the year field trips to celebrate the completion of testing. Please note that students must meet behavior expectations in order to attend off campus trips. If you have any questions about your child’s progress, please contact the school or attend our next SAC meeting on March 12th at 6 PM.

Did you know we have a Community Resource Room with free books, parent guides and videos to help with your child at home? We also have a free Clothing Bank, free Food Bank and Laptops reserved for Parents and Community members to access the internet on campus. Feel free to stop by the school and see Mrs. Bardwell, our School Counselor.

Sincerely,

Shedrick Dukes, Ed.S. Principal

Black History Month Celebration

The title of the presentation was "Achievements Of The Race" to commemorate achievements in the African American Community. A big thank you all the officials in attendance including PATRICIA H. WILLIAMS (Florida House Representative and former graduate of C. Robert Markham) as well as Pompano City Commissioner Beverly Perkins. Thank you everyone!

BUILDING TO A "B"

Dear Parents and Community Members,

Happy February!!! We are now into the third quarter of school, and our teachers and students are working extremely hard to get our school to a “B” by engaging in rigorous classroom activities and assessments. As we continue to prepare for the Florida Standards Assessment (FSA) I encourage you to view the assessment dates posted on our school’s website and newsletter.

Currently, we are encouraging all students in K-5 to utilize i-Ready at home to prepare for the upcoming exams. If you have any questions concerning this software program, please contact the school or attend our next SAC meeting on February 12th.

Did you know we have a Community Resource room with free materials to help with your child at home? We also have a free clothing bank, free food bank and laptops reserved for Parents and Community members to access the internet on campus. Feel free to stop by the school and see Mrs. Bardwell, our School Counselor.

Sincerely,

Shedrick Dukes, Ed.S. Principal
