October 2, 2009 Raider Gazette 2

Dear Central Families,
We are 19 days into the new school and I am very happy with what I have seen. We have a great bunch of students, wonderful teachers and a very supportive community. Norwood Young America is a great place to be. Over the past few weeks your students have been working hard. Most of them have done DIBELS testing and also NWEA. We use the data from these tests to find out where your child is in comparison to their peers and also the data is used to drive instruction. Teachers strive day in and day out to teach for learning. Data makes this job easier. I am very pleased with their efforts. Have a great fall!
Sincerely,
Andrew L. Wilkins
