This week was a short week due to student conferences It was great to meet with all the parents and the students at the same time. I was very happy how well students were able to self assess their strengths and stretches and were able to provide evidence to support their assessments. I feel very fortunate to be able to teach and learn with such an amazing group of students. Have a great long weekend! |
