Dear Founding Board of Trustees,

 

February was a great month at school!
 

  • Our Students. Students took our third round of STEP assessments and began new reading groups. Recruitment for SY 23-24 is underway and we hit 100 total applications! 
     
  • Our Staff.  Staff participated in our second Data Day and we developed new reading groups that began before the break. We are having intent to return conversations as we head into hiring for SY 23-24.

 

  • Our Facility. We have a brand new HVAC system in 9 Hanover Place and signed the lease for our forever home at 4001 4th avenue!

 

Looking forward to meeting as a group this month!


Together we RISE,
