==Text==
Happy New Year Central Park Families!


We are making plans about our work that we'd like to share. As a staff we have spent time reflecting on some school practices and looking at ways we can make learning more enriching. Here are a few of the practices we want to broaden to give students a stronger foundation.
* '''Assemblies''' – To showcase more of what students are learning, and introduce routines and procedures for the whole school
* '''Conflict-resolution groups''' – Teaching all children how to resolve differences verbally
* '''Lunch Program''' – Open to all families (TBA)
* '''School Newspaper''' – Students will produce, school-wide
* '''Cross grade level projects''' such as peer buddies, book buddies and mentors
* '''School-wide exhibits / Special enrichment projects''' – Science exhibits
* '''Standardizing portfolios''' – Looking at what we include as assessment for each student
* As a staff, we are committed to ongoing staff development on project-based learning, conflict resolution, developmental reading assessment and differential instruction.
We appreciate your patience and co-operation as we educate ourselves to better educate your children.
We appreciate all of your volunteer hours and constructive feedback to help us grow.
Sincerely,<br>
