No one should care how a kindergartener compares on a standardized test with kindergarteners around the country. They should care if the child feels cared for, valued, and actually enjoys coming to school to learn. Let's focus on the joy of learning, not testing.
An amazing week! Thank you for another great camp @NIUCOE!
Last week, a small group of SYC427 educators attended the 6th annual NIU Social Justice Summer Camp! Through the experience, educators who attended the conference were able to discuss social justice issues generally and in school-specific contexts with experts and colleagues.

What a wonderful and inspiring week with this amazing group of educators & accomplices! #SocialJusticeCamp @NIUCOE @SYC427
Our 5th graders left their mark on our building! We will miss this amazing group! @SYC427 #empowering2succeed

2/2 My hope is that all who knew her will carry on her legacy of unwavering kindness and her passion for equity. I know she'd have something sassy to say if we don't ❤️ gofundme.com/f/memorial-and-…
