Principal's Message for April
Level 3 Status
We are happy to announce that we have completed the re-certification process for a Level 3 rating with Paths to Quality. The rating is Indiana's statewide quality rating and improvement system for early education. Advancement in the Paths to Quality rating levels result in significant quality improvements at every level. Our facility has started the process for advancement to Level 4. When we are certified at Level 4 we will have achieved national accreditation. Level 4 programs are the highest rated programs and have demonstrated a commitment to the highest level of professionalism in quality care and education. As we move through the process toward national accreditation we will keep you informed on our progress.

Grant Awards
The Carrie Gosch Early Learning Center has been awarded 2 grants this year. Both grants were given through Early Learning Partnerships. The first grant was used to purchase brand new books so that our students could have opportunities to read with their families at least once per week. We called this program Book Baggies and sent notices home in January. It is our hope that you and your family are enjoying reading the books to your children.
The second grant that we have been awarded is the Advancing Family Partnerships grant. This grant will be used to support our new parent center. The parent center will be called the Parent Cafe. This will be a gathering place for families to meet and discuss topics concerning child development. We are also developing partnerships with several community agencies to support the needs of our families. We are extremely excited to have acquired this grant and we have sent two surveys to families to help guide us with the development of this resource in our building. We thank the families who responded to the survey! We will continue to provide updates as we move forward with the development of the Parent Cafe.
New Construction The Carrie Gosch Early Learning Center has started construction on a playground. We will not use the entrance at Door J until the construction is completed. Please use door K for drop off and arrival until further notice.
New Procedures
Families we will begin new safety procedures this month. These procedures are being introduced to keep our children safe. Please be patient as we work with the new system. We are asking that you support our new system by following the following steps:
- All parents and guardians must drop off and pick up their child at the designated doors. Parents will remain outside during the drop off and pick up procedure.
- Any parent or guardian who wishes to enter the building with or without their child during the school day or at the opening or close of the school day must enter through the main entrance at door K only.
- Once the parent or guardian has entered the building through door K, they are to directly report to the main office. The new system will require that each visitor entering our building provide School Officials with a valid form of ‘photo’ identification. The photo will be scanned into an Electronic Visitor’s Log and will be immediately checked against the National Sex Offender Registry to ensure everyone entering our schools poses no known threat to our students.
- A visitors tag will be issued to the parent or guardian.
- Parents or guardians will be escorted from the main office. The escort will remain with the parent/ guardian until the parent or guardian leaves the school campus.
These procedures will be used throughout the school district and are in place to ensure the safety of our children.
Children's Progress Academic Assessment (CPAA)
The link above shows how our students have progressed thus far. We have seen tremendous growth in the area of phonics. However all areas, such as measurement, numeracy, patterns, listening, reading and phonemic awareness (hearing sounds for letters and within words) have improved. We will continue to work with our students in all of the areas mentioned as well as physical development and building social emotional skills.
We are extremely proud of the children's overall progress and their continued growth and development. Please look forward to our next progress report that will be sent to you on April 27th. Also, if you have questions about how your child is doing or what can be done to support your child's learning, please speak with your child's teacher.
Sincerely,
Mrs. E. Glenn
