Superintendent Update September 2023
September 1, 2023
The first week of school is in the books! There were mixed emotions of course, but by and large, everyone was happy and excited to be back and start what is sure to be an outstanding school year!
Safe, Warm, Dry Bond work from the summer is wrapping up. A huge Thank You! to the Besser staff and families for being patient as the first week involved a modified pick up and drop off procedure due to ongoing paving work in the parking lot and bus loop.
MStep, Mi-Access, PSAT, and SAT results have been released publicly by the State of Michigan. Our results are mixed. We have some bright spots where scores are increasing, but overall, our results remain below the state average. We continue to focus on improving our results.
NWEA testing will begin this month for elementary and junior high students. This assessment provides valuable data to help us understand where our students are academically so we can then determine the best course of action to help them excel. Please remind your students of the importance of being well rested and doing their best when they take these tests. You can also ask them if they know their NWEA score from last year.
Parents and guardians be aware! Please see this website https://highlightvape.com/ It is highly disturbing that companies are creating vape devices, designed to entice students, which hide the devices in plain sight from teachers, administrators, parents, and guardians. If you are unable to access the website, a company has designed vaping devices that look identical to a highlighter marker that you might use in school or the office. Vapes are NOT a safe alternative to cigarettes.
Superintendent priorities for the 2023-24 School Year
School Safety
Raising Academic Achievement
Partnering with Parents
Mental Health and Wellness of Staff and Students
Safe, Warm, Dry Bond
Innovating for the Future
Have a wonderful Holiday weekend!
