"Preparing All Students to Succeed"

Points of Pride

  • Preschool AARA funds were used to purchase Handwriting Without Tears for each preschool classroom. The occupational therapists presented a workshop to the teachers on how to use this program. The children at Sardis Elementary love to make letters with wood pieces on a felt board. Yesterday the teacher gave them pretzel sticks for snack and one of the boys used the pretzel sticks to make letters just like they do with the wooden pieces. Way to make the connection guys!

  • At Sardis Elementary, a three year old student who requires assistance with his classroom activities sat up on his own while sitting on the floor. He then used both hands to grab a toy. He was able to sit without assistance for 15 minutes. This is a major accomplishment and that is why they call him their Christmas miracle!
