Wildcat Summer Challenges

Summer slide is the phrase used to describe the slide backwards that many children make in reading and math skills over the summer. It’s possible for a child to regress 2-3 months back in terms of reading level, meaning they could start school in September at the same reading level they were at in April of the previous year. Summer slide can happen to even the brightest kids, and it doesn’t need to be over a long period of time – even a couple of weeks away from school can soften skills. You can combat summer slide by encouraging your child to devote a small bit of time each day to keeping up skills. Reading for as little as 20 minutes a day can keep the dreaded slide at bay and may very well increase reading skills over the summer. Check out the Wildcat Math Fact Challenge and Reading Challenges by clicking above. .

State Testing

Wildcat Parents~ Standardized State Testing starts soon for Grades 3rd - 5th! It’s almost that time again – standardized testing is right around the corner. You play an important part in helping students give their best performance on this important test. As you know, we have been busy preparing and reinforcing the skills necessary for students to demonstrate their learning. Even though this assessment is a snapshot—one single perspective – it is important that our students have every advantage to do their very best. The students have taken several practice tests and are well prepared.
