-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''' &ndash; To showcase more of what students are learning, and introduce routines and procedures for the whole school
-* '''Conflict-resolution groups''' &ndash; Teaching all children how to resolve differences verbally
-* '''Lunch Program''' &ndash; Open to all families (TBA)
-* '''School Newspaper''' &ndash; Students will produce, school-wide
-* '''Cross grade level projects''' such as peer buddies, book buddies and mentors
-* '''School-wide exhibits / Special enrichment projects''' &ndash; Science exhibits
-* '''Standardizing portfolios''' &ndash; 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>
-Carolyn
