 Mohonasen's Connect for Success
initiative is in full swing with three "success teams" working to
spearhead exciting improvement efforts and projects to benefit students in
grades K-12. Parents,
staff and interested community members are encouraged to get involved -- and
make a difference in the lives of kids! What follows is a summary of each
team's charge, initiatives on tap for the 2005-06 school year as well as a
tentative schedule of year-long meeting dates.
Involvement in Mohonasen's Connect
for Success initiative does not require a huge commitment of time and the
rewards will be many. Call any of the team contacts for more information or just
come to a meeting to find out how you can get involved.

This team is working to promote a solid early learning foundation
and readiness skills among all children entering school. Members sponsor
the annual kindergarten orientation program. The Beginnings team has developed a "Welcome to
Kindergarten" brochure for district parents, a Kindergarten Tool Kit
for parents to use with their preschooler, and a Beginnings
Web site located by accessing the Bradt School Web page. Beginnings also sponsors
the preschool story hours each spring and promotes greater participation in the 1000 Book Club
Project among district
preschoolers. The team also works to promote a variety of ways to help parents
build math and early literacy skills with their preschooler. E-mail Diane
