Challenges / Issues / Concerns:

-Maintaining focus and academic rigor through the end of the school year.

Director’s Summary:

As always, the teachers and staff of SuMMit have worked well together as a team throughout this quarter, regardless of busy schedules, busy kids, and daily changes. In addition to applauding these efforts, it is necessary to applaud the efforts and commitment that Therese Kent has demonstrated. She has been a driving force to ensure that we are supporting teachers, maintaining student focus and communicating with parents.

I am pleased to report that two SuMMitstudents have progressed academically and behaviorally to the point of expanding their time at the Florence K-8 side and therefore decreasing the time they spend in SuMMit. This progress demonstrates great efforts on the parts of both the students and the teachers; it additionally demonstrates the efforts that parents put forth at home working with their students and at school, supporting their children’s teachers.
