This designation means that these student populations score among the lowest-performing five percent in Utah\u2019s Title I schools in academic performance and growth.<\/p>\n<p>The program improvement designation provides an opportunity for principals, teachers, and parents to focus on areas of school improvement. The Granite School District and the Utah State Board of Education are working with our school to improve teaching and learning, especially in the areas of reading and mathematics by providing technical assistance and professional development opportunities to the teachers and administrators within our school.<\/p>\n<p>Magna STEAM Academy is working to improve its academic program by undergoing a rigorous school improvement effort led by a school system of support team. We have recently exited our Multi Language Learner students and we are recruiting the help of peer tutors from Cyprus High School in each of our classrooms to support all of our students, but specifically our Students with Disabilities and our Pacific Islander Students. However, parent support is essential to the success of the school improvement efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Parents can effectively assist student achievement improvement in the following ways:<br \/>\n\u2022 Communicating frequently with your student\u2019s teachers<br \/>\n\u2022 Making sure your student attends school regularly<br \/>\n\u2022 Helping your student with homework<br \/>\n\u2022 Monitoring your student\u2019s screen time<br \/>\n\u2022 Reading aloud to your student<br \/>\n\u2022 Volunteering in the classroom<br \/>\n\u2022 Participating in school decision-making<\/p>\n<p>We want to request your help as the school addresses its academic needs and will invite parents to serve on the committee that will develop a school improvement plan.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Benjamin Horsley, Superintendent<\/p>\n<p>Joan Giroux-Bramble, Ed.D., Title I Director<\/p>\n<p>Benjamin Peters, Principal<\/p>\n<a class=\"button\" href=\"#links\">Back to Index<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","inline_featured_image":false,"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"coauthors":[32],"class_list":["post-3729","page","type-page","status-publish","entry"],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/Pg8eVr-Y9","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3729","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3729"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3729\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3730,"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3729\/revisions\/3730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schools.graniteschools.org\/magna\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=3729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
