Tiger Nation:

I wanted to provide information about our STAAR BLITZ days that are scheduled for December 2^nd, March 3^rd, March 24^th, March 31^st, and April 7^th.
 

Our campuses have daily intervention time built into our schedules, but these STAAR BLITZ days provide enrichment opportunities in a small group setting for our students, so that our Tigers and Tigerettes can be successful in class and on STAAR testing days in the Spring. 
 

Each campus has looked at data from class work, tests, and interim assessments to decide who would benefit from attending Blitz on December 2^nd.  For the March and April BLITZ days, benchmark assessment data will play a vital role in determining which students need to attend. 
 

The campus administrators will contact you if they believe your student needs to attend these BLITZ DAYS.  They will also notify you of drop off and pick up times.  I also hear some snacks and goodies will be available these days as well. 
 

Slaton ISD is committed to providing every opportunity for our students to be the best they can possibly be.  We look forward to seeing the growth that will come from the activities each campus has planned for our STAAR BLITZ days. 

As always, it’s a GREAT day to be a Tiger!!
