Dear Pomona Families,

Happy New Year to everyone in our Pomona school family! Thank you for the many ways you helped to make Pomona such a special place for children over this past year. It is so hard to believe that the first half of the school year is already a thing of the past! As we begin our new calendar year we are looking forward to the second half of the school year with a great deal of excitement. Our learners are making lots of progress toward meeting grade level expectations and we thank you for your assistance in supporting your children at home. Please continue to help us by providing a quiet place for them to do their work, signing homework planners, and keeping those lines of communication open between home and school.

At this midpoint in the year I would like to share some important principles that guide our work each day:

Pomona’s Mission Statement …

Achieving Excellence in a Community of Learners

Pomona Vision

To Foster a Passion for Learning in a Respectful Community to Achieve Success for All

Pomona Improvement Strategies

Major Improvement Strategy #1: Provide time beyond the 60 minutes of core math for all students.

Major Improvement Strategy #2: Help parents to become more informed about Investigations and how to support their learner at home.

Major Improvement Strategy #3: Teachers will all use the GVCIA (district curriculum), writer’s workshop and Lucy Caulkins Units of Study (Gr. 3-5) as structures for teaching Writing and the Writing Continuum for identifying where children are developmentally.

Thank you for your continued support of our mission, vision, and goals. May your new year be filled with health and happiness.

Fondly,

Emma-Leigh Larsen
