fl message from Rick molitor
Superintendent
— Stuart Smith, Achieve
Student, WSE, grade 5
Last week, I had the privilege of spending
time with our students, teachers and staff
at Buff Intermediate and Warm Springs
Elementary. What a great experience. As
an administrator, it’s important for me to
visit the school buildings and see, first-hand
the progress, enthusiasm and commitment
that fills those classrooms. The students are
genuinely happy and excited about learning. The teachers
and staff are working every minute of every day to engage
students in learning and we’re seeing results.
While we still have work to do, our reading scores are
increasing dramatically. At Buff, we’ve experienced our
highest 5th grade reading scores ever at 54% in the first
round of OAKS testing. This is a huge accomplishment for
our team and children on so many levels. Even with a new,
higher average score target set by the State, we are exceeding
in reading.
Warm Springs OAKS testing is currently underway.
We’ve been seeing great progress among our students this
year. Our “Achieve” program is helping children who are
at or above grade level build stronger reading and writing
skills. I can clearly see that the students are engaged and
learning - and the endless smiles from all I met were heart
warming.
I’d like to ask our community friends and families to join
me in celebrating our amazing teachers, staff and students.
Don’t forget to thank them for their hard work and focus.
They are making a difference for all of us here in Jefferson
County.
