Jefferson Elementary School Reviews

 
I believe that the quality of the academic programs at Jefferson school are 'what they can be' based on what the district board allows for. The math program is very fast paced, which requires students to quickly recall basic addition/subraction and multiplication/division facts by Nov(grade4). The Lang. Arts program is much more loosely constructed. For this school to meet its AYP, there needs to be a drastic change in the overall Lang. Arts program. The writing portion seems to be getting better with its focus taking a step back making sure all students are able to master sentence construction before moving on to paragraphs/essays. The reading portion needs the most improvement. The program lacks teaching of comprehension skills. Accountablitly needs to be refocused on the district heads and curriculium choices. Teachers are doing what they can with what they have.
