School is Out for Summer 2012

School is out for summer!  For some if you passed all of your classes to proceed to the next grade.  As you know, earlier in the year, the district passed changes to the school budget, which resulted in the close of summer school.  There were only a few schools in Philadelphia offering courses for students to succeed to the next grade.  With this outcome, students will not only have to work harder to keep a passing grade in prevention to repeat the grade.  Contributors of failure to the next level are from factors of not completing assignments, passe attention to lessons, distractions from intergrating special need students in the classrooms who need undivided attention, and defiant behavior. Teachers will continue to collectively figure out ways to captivate the attention of students for more than 5 minutes. School recommences September 6^th, 2012.
