Math – 50% of the retakes passed. Reading – 271 retakes – overall 20% did okay on the FCAT.
Mrs. Webb suggested that we do fewer strategies on math next year.
Science – we will keep all the strategies except #3 for next year.
Parental Involvement – we will keep the same strategies for next year.
Return on Investment – we will keep all the strategies for next year. We may want to look into the Box Tops for Education program. We want to keep the Communities in Schools tutoring.
Reading Strategies – we currently have 18 strategies. Ms. Cash said we need to review them. It was decided that we will modify those strategies based on the State and District mandates.
