FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK
THANK YOU: I want to express my appreciation to the students, staff and parents for the past few weeks during my absence from school due to complications from surgery. While it has been a difficult time at school the past couple of weeks, the staff has done a great job taking care of students and providing the best education possible. I appreciate the kind words, cards, thoughts and prayers that came my way during my time away from school. It is great to be back, as we close out another school year for the Eisenhower students.

MTSS: A combination of curriculum and instructional practices are used to support students in achieving outcomes. It is important to distinguish between curriculum and instruction. The curriculum is what is taught; instruction is how it is taught. When students are learning new or difficult tasks, they are given more assistance. As they begin to demonstrate task mastery, the assistance or support is decreased gradually in order to shift the responsibility for learning from the teacher to the student. As the student assumes more responsibility for their learning, the teacher provides less support
