Letter from the Principal
Dear OEC Families,
Welcome back to school for 2024-2025!
I am proud of last year’s accomplishments. We restructured the school day to optimize instructional minutes, redesigned our program for visually impaired/blind (VIB) students, and implemented the new Illustrative Mathematics curriculum! On the PSSA, 41.6% of students performed at the Proficient/Advanced level in ELA and 13.1% scored Proficient/Advanced in Math.
This year, we are rolling out the new Expeditionary Learning ELA curriculum and focusing on Multi-Tiered Systems of Support to help students who struggle with academics and social emotional learning. Our goals are:
- At least 43.62% of grade 3-8 students will score proficient/advanced on the ELA PSSA
- At least 17.62% of grade 3-8 students will score proficient/advanced on the Math PSSA
- At least 80.60% of all students will attend school 90% of days or more
I look forward to continue working with you to ensure all of our students are successful!
Sincerely,
Principal Jones
