No School on Friday - Staff Development Day in MPCSD
This Friday, teachers will collaborate in District-wide grade-level cohorts to review the MARS Math Assessment and The 21st Century Learning Assessment administered to elementary and middle school students over the past month. Grades 2, 4 and 6 took the MARS assessment while grades 3, 5 and 8 took the 21st Century Learning assessment. The goal of the day is for teachers to closely examine student work, reflect on the assessment process and discuss next steps.
