How to Check i-Ready Weekly Progress
We created a video for you to learn how to check your student's i-Ready weekly progress. Students should be working in i-Ready for at least forty-five minutes in Reading and Math each week. The minimum target pass rate is 70%. The weekly progress resets each Saturday. Learn how to monitor your child's progress by watching this video. (Spanish video)
No Early Dismissal Wednesdays
This past Wednesday, March 6 was one of OCPS' non-early dismissal Wednesdays for the spring. There are still four of these Wednesdays remaining so all students will have the opportunity to  complete SAT and/or FSA tests without concern for running out of time:

* Wednesday, May 1  
* Wednesday, May 8
* Wednesday, May 15


From Jaguar Journey:

This Friday afternoon we wind down what has been a wonderful Teacher Appreciation Week here at Jackson Middle School. I am so proud of the way our students, PTSA, and community members have made such a great effort to remember our teachers for all they have done since last August. 

We are all where we are today thanks to teachers in our past. And while you may not remember who won the Super Bowl three years ago, last year's Oscar winner for Best Picture or in a pinch the names of Florida's two state senators; you will instantly remember the names of elementary school teachers and beyond that have helped you achieve in life.
Thank you for looking over this latest issue and please don't forget that Sunday is another special event . . . Happy Mother's Day!

With Jaguar Pride,

Mrs. Betzabeth Reussow

Progress Reports 
I hope you enjoyed the Presidents' Day holiday this past Monday. Please remember that we have released student Progress Reports for the third marking period. If you have a student at Jackson, please review their results as soon as possible keeping in mind that we do offer free tutoring for all students. In fact, tomorrow we are having another Saturday tutoring session. This one is focused on math and runs from 9:00 a.m. to noon.   
 
Parent Survey Reminder 
We are still working towards a 20% response rate on this year's Parent Survey. The feedback helps us a great deal in school improvement planning. If this applies to your household, please take a few moments to complete the anonymous survey. Your time is sincerely appreciated.   
 
 
 
  
Enjoy your weekend and thank you for looking over this latest issue!

Final Days of the Third Quarter
This week was our last regular five-day school week of the third quarter - calendar. There is no school on Friday, March 15 for students, but it is a regular workday for the teachers as they finalize grades for the quarter. With time growing very short in this nine-week marking period, I encourage all of our Jaguars to complete any missing assignments or projects as soon as possible in order to earn the final grades they are capable of and deserve.
