Unsatisfactory Notices were sent home today. Please remember from our discussion that Unsatisfactory Notices do not mean a child is "failing" a subject or any indication that they will be retained in 1st grade. They are just an indicator that measurements taken so far show your child performing below the expected standard in 1 or more of the areas of Reading, Writing, or Math. If growth is not shown in the next 6 weeks to meet the expected standard at that time, a grade of a 2 could be possible on the 1st progress report.
It is not necessary for the contents of the Unsatisfactory Notice to be discussed with your child. The measurements of your child's performance and their meaning will be discussed with parents at conferences on the last week of this month.
