Notes from the SuperintendentWelcome to the 2017-18 school year! Along with the new school year comes district-wide improvements. Collaborating in Professional Learning Communities (i.e. PLC's) our teachers focused on setting instructional outcomes, designing student assessments, and engaging students in learning during the 2016-17 school year. This year, our teachers will direct study and attention towards designing coherent instruction, managing student behavior, and using assessment to guide instruction.
Our lunch program has also embarked an a couple of huge improvements this year. Over the summer, for the first time ever, Ashby Public School participated in a state program which provided a free breakfast to all students under the age of 18; and, beginning on the first day of school, the Ashby School Lunch Program will be providing a salad bar choice to our students on an everyday basis. In the area of building and grounds, beyond the usual cleaning and painting, our custodial staff has completed major projects to upgrade the water softener, replace worn flooring, and managing three landscaping/playground projects. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at (218) 747-2257. And finally, I encourage all of you to show your school spirit by attending as many Ashby Arrow events as possible. Let’s work together to make this a great year for Ashby Public Schools. GO ARROWS! |
