Please join your friends on Friday, March 3 at 9 am for
coffee and informative conversation!
The Coffee will feature Assistant Principal Kris
Griswold and the timely topic is Standardized Testing. What is the culture for
testing at Fort River? How do teachers and students prepare? How can testing
related stress be managed? What's up with computerized testing? Is it possible
for standardized testing to be fun? (Believe it or not, at Fort River the
answer is YES!) There will be ample time for questions.
PGO coffees with the Principal take place every month or
so. The dates can be found on the PGO calendar which is on the right side of
the blog home page. Some coffees may take place in the evening, depending upon
community feedback. There will usually be a presentation for families and
specifics will be available beforehand.
Your infants, toddlers, and preschoolers are always
welcome at PGO Coffees! Families with future Amherst Elementary school children
are also welcome and encouraged to attend. We are a welcoming community - join
us! We hope to see you there!
