Attendance Is Important!

Greetings families!

The State of Connecticut and New Haven Public Schools calculate chronic absences based on excused and unexcused absences and suspension days.

throughout the year—around two days per month, totaling 18+ days.

End of Year Reflections!

Dear Parents,

As I reflect on this year, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your incredible partnership throughout the year. Together, we have created magical experiences for our young scholars, many of whom have successfully met their growth goals. This collective achievement is a testament to the power of collaboration and commitment. While we have made significant progress, there are still challenges ahead that we must face together. Education remains the great equalizer, and our united efforts are essential to ensure our scholars are not only in school but prepared and eager to learn each day. With the new academic year approaching, I am filled with optimism and enthusiasm. We have the opportunity to build on this year’s achievements and strive for even greater success. I am confident that through our continued partnership, we will empower our scholars to exceed expectations and confidently rise above the status quo. Thank you once again for your unwavering support. Let’s continue to work together to create an inspiring and enriching educational journey for our scholars.

Warm regards, 

Principal  Baker

2023-2024 Family School Climate Survey

What is the School Climate Survey?

The “School Climate Survey" is a research-based, validated and developmentally appropriate survey administered to students, school employees and families of students, in the predominant languages of the members of the school community, that measures and identifies school climate needs and tracks progress through a school climate improvement plan.

School Climate Survey:

Objectives

● To use the school climate survey as a feedback pathway to identify strengths and challenges, to improve school climate, and to create or propose revisions to the school climate improvement plan.

● To utilize the school climate survey data with other relevant information, through a process, engaging all members of the school community and involving such members in a series of overlapping systemic improvements, school-wide instructional practices and relational practices that prevent, identify and respond to challenging behavior, including, but not limited to alleged bullying and harassment in the school environment.

School Climate Survey:

Why?

● The school climate survey is given as a feedback pathway to identify strengths and challenges, to improve school climate, and to create or propose revisions to the school climate improvement plan.

● The school climate survey is given at each school in the district to inform school and district planning and improvement efforts.

● The school climate survey is given to hear different perspectives from students, families, and staff.

● Connecticut law states each school shall administer a school climate survey to students, school employees, and families of students. School Climate Survey: Environment

● Designate a space for each class/grade level to complete the survey.

● Coordinate a day and time for the survey to be administered by designated staff members. ○ The survey will take 20-25 minutes to complete

● Pre-schedule makeup dates and times for students who miss the original administration date.

● Create a positive environment to take survey ○ Acceptable noise level ○ Explain why they are being asked to take a survey ○ Encourage participation and honest feedback ○ Provide the proper amount of time to take survey ○ Consider school-wide or class incentives.
