Showing growth is important and something we focus on at NEVC Elementary because learning is a journey, not a race. When students work hard, reflect on feedback, and keep trying, even when learning feels challenging, they build confidence and lifelong skills that extend beyond the classroom.
Please join me in congratulating the following students for showing growth on their STAR Reading assessment and/or Momentum Math assessment. We are proud of their effort, perseverance, and commitment to learning!
