Hi WMS Families,

In January, we completed Benchmark #2 and challenged all students to improve from their Benchmark #1 results. I am so proud of the effort our students put into showing growth.

We promised that the grade level with the highest percentage of students who made growth would earn hot cocoa. Congratulations to our 6th graders for earning the highest growth overall. Way to go!

All 6th graders received a hot cocoa ticket during 1st period today. They can bring their ticket tomorrow morning, to the cafeteria, and redeem it anytime between 7:00–7:50 AM.

Thank you for continuing to encourage your students to work hard and grow. We are proud of them.

The image below shows the percentage of students who performed better on Benchmark #2 than Benchmark #1, in each grade level, for both Math and ELA.

**I apologize for the late message tonight. I thought I scheduled this to send this morning, but I set it for tomorrow morning on accident.
