Our school carnival last week was an amazing event! I thoroughly enjoyed interacting with you and your children. Thank you to all the many people who donated time and items to make this event a success.
Today, the Utah State Board of Education released school grades and specific information on how our students performed academically on the state assessments at the end of the 21-22 school year. Oakridge received an A for scoring 75% in the exemplary category. This is awesome! Oakridge has many areas to highlight and celebrate on our report card. These accomplishments reflect the dedication and hard work of our students, faculty and administration, school support staff, and parents. Congratulations on helping our students succeed at this level!
Student Achievement proficiency on the RISE assessment for students in 3rd, 4th, 5th grades

There are different components that are measured to calculate school grades including proficiency and growth. I have attached the link to the website for you to find out more information. The data gateway has may tools available for you to see student growth data by specific groups, subject areas, compare schools with like demographics, etc.
I will be hosting my principal/parent meeting on Wednesday, October 26th at 8:00am. During this meeting I will be sharing information on the continual school improvement plan process in Granite School District and information regarding our school plan for the current school year. The last part of this meeting is an open question and answer time to discuss topics you request.
Have a fantastic fall break!
