SOL Testing – May 6th – May 14th
Standards of Learning (SOLs) assessments measure how students are learning the state standards. The SOLs are an important opportunity for students to demonstrate what they have learned and what areas they may still need support in. Please partner with us by encouraging your student(s) to do their best on each assessment. Our goal is to help students reach their full potential, and an accurate SOL score is an important data point in that mission. Click here to review our SOL schedule.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support.
Yours in education,
Principal Mizell
SEL LESSON
On Monday, your child learned about self-concept—how they see and think about themselves. They learned that a person’s self-concept can affect their actions and decisions, which is why it’s important to develop a positive self-concept. Ask your student to explain what a self-concept is. Ask them why they think it’s important to have a positive self-concept.
