Read by Third Grade

Based on Public Law 306 (October 2016), third grade students who are more than a year below grade level on the state ELA assessment are under consideration for retention in third grade.  Dearborn Public Schools staff in elementary schools have been systematically planning to ensure that teachers have the training to teach reading effectively and that students receive small group instruction based on their needs.  The current year second graders are the first group to potentially be impacted by the legislation.

You are invited to join the district task force to strengthen the planning process and to ensure that the community is informed and engaged in the success of every student.

6th Grade Superman at Stout Middle School :-)

Picture Below [Left to Right]:

Mr. Andrew Antonazzo, a student-teacher from Wayne State University.  Mr. Antonazzo is learning to become a teacher, specifically, a physical education teacher.  Here, Mr. Antonazzo stands with sixth (6th) grade student Basel Naser.  Basel came to Stout today dressed as Superman.  Basel is an excellent student and we enjoy having him in our 6th grade P.E. class.

Mr. Vietinghoff with Basel prior to the start of class in which all classes are participating and learning to improve their front crawl in swimming 🙂
