The celebrations confirm that our instructional behavior changes were positive and good for kids as reflected by the scores. Celebrate this achievement. I believe that the scores are a result of our focus, and confirm that we are headed in the right direction. We have significant work yet to do, but this is a good indicator of our progress. I congratulate you, your family, and our staff on a job well done.
Sincerely,
Brett Minne
