As we finish up the last week of February, we are feeling re-energized after the break and ready to take on March with purpose! This month we did our Winter Map Testing and had professional development focused on the science of reading. We are beginning the process of hiring for next year and are excited that many of our staff are planning to return again. Student recruitment is underway for next school year and at the moment are numbers are looking lower than previous years, so we will be putting more focus and priority on student recruitment in the month of March as we get ready for our 24-25 SY Lottery on April 2nd.

The month of January was a great start to the new year at Brooklyn RISE! We came back from the winter break ready to hit the ground running with fresh data and intervention/instructional plans to support students. We have had some fluctuations in our enrollment due to the number of students we have living in the migrant/asylee shelters, but overall our numbers have stayed stable. We are looking forward to two more strong weeks before the February break!
