Hard to believe this is the last newsletter of the school year. What a terrific year it has been, full of deep content learning as well as many celebrations! As we near the end of the school year, we have a few last events to call out as well as year long achievements to celebrate.

End of Year Events:

Highlights of the Year:

Academic Excellence: Our students continue to maintain or make significant growth in ELA and math, with over 75% meeting or exceeding grade-level expectations.
BARR: We continued our implementation of the BARR framework to improve our Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) and to increase our focus on our character education in our entire school, K-8. We received a visit from the Education Commission of the States, recognizing our hard work in this implementation.
Enrichment Opportunities: Our students placed in multiple events, bringing home awards from Battle of the Books, Math Counts and Science Fair. Additionally students showcased their musical and artistic talents throughout the year with excellent cumulative performances.

Acknowledgements:

None of this is possible without the continued support and contributions from parents, teachers, students and community members. We so appreciate everyone who stepped in to help make this school year a success. I hope you all have a wonderful summer making great memories and enjoying your time together.

With gratitude,

Caroline Hickerson
Principal, Snowy Range Academy Charter School
