Salk Mission: Each student will be a confident leader with the skills to achieve excellence!

  1. Celebrations

  2. Student Senate Feedback: 

    1. Suggestion box so students can write suggestions for our school.

    2. Want their names said as they go across the stage and a slide show presentation. They want some say on the music for the day. 

    3. School store: they like the experiences and the trinkets in school store. Would be interested in seeing clothes in the school store. 

    4. 6th Graders Rotation: Items are heavy, asking for another way to store in classrooms so their bags aren't heavy. 

    5. Lower school store prices a bit. 

  3. Navvy: Building Assessments & using data to inform instruction

  4. Launch: “You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” A.A. Milne (author of Winnie-the-Pooh) 

Salk School-Wide Goals: 

  • Salk will increase AASA Reading and Math proficiency by 5% through the implementation of backward-design lesson planning and Tier 1 small-group instruction. This approach ensures tight instructional alignment and targeted support for all learners.

  • Salk will increase student mastery of ELA priority standards by 5% on the AASA. We will achieve this through bi-monthly data analysis of formative and summative assessments, using insights to bridge learning gaps via targeted instructional pacing and resource alignment.

  • More students (a five-percentage-point or more increase) will demonstrate proficiency on the state-required Writing assessments.
