INTERFACE Referral Service for all WRSD Community Members

-



WRSD is pleased to continue to work with the Interface referral service again this school year.  Wachusett has partnered with William James College to help facilitate outpatient counseling referrals.  To obtain an outside therapist, families typically have to make multiple phone calls, sort through health insurance requirements, and are often placed on long waitlists.  With William James College's Interface service, families only have to make a phone call to start the referral process, and the wait is often significantly shorter than it would be through other means.  This service is free and available to all residents of our five member towns.  No direct affiliation with our schools is required for community members.

  TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK Yesterday was the first day of Teacher Appreciation Week, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our educators for their commitment and passion.  Teaching is hard work.  Far too often, the preparation, skill, and effort that are paramount to the success of this critical endeavor are overlooked.  Thank you to all of our teachers for all that you do!  You make a difference and are appreciated!

Thank you to all who participated in the DESE Comprehensive Review the week of May 1st. Many teachers, school and district administrators, students, parents, and School Committee members, participated in focus groups and classroom site visits. The team from AIR (Advancing Evidence Improves Lives), contracted by DESE (Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education) were very complimentary about the warm welcome they received. Thank you for providing input on Wachusett Regional School District's practices. DESE will be sharing a draft report over the summer, and when we receive the final report I am sure the information will enable us to reflect on progress and strengthen student performance.

Gr. K-8 STAR Middle of Year Benchmark Test Results Parents/guardians of students in Grades K-8 are now able to view their child’s Middle of Year Benchmark STAR scores in Powerschool.  STAR test results are used by Gr. K-8 teachers to identify student’s strengths and opportunities for growth in Early Literacy/Reading and Mathematics. Parents will be able to view both the “Unified Scale Score” and the “Percentile Rank”.  Please  link here  for directions on  How to View MCAS and Star Assessment Scores in Powerschool .  If parents/guardians have questions about his/her child’s results, they should consider meeting with the principal, counselor, or teacher to discuss areas where improvement may be needed and/or ways that parent/guardian may support their child’s learning at home.  Thank you for your continued partnership!
