| At the February staff meeting, our teachers analyzed our PM Benchmark Reading Assessment data for term 1 and 2. We found that our school had strong results with 78% of our students meeting or approaching expectations. However, we found that only 40% of our Indigenous students are meeting or approaching expectations on the assessment. As a way to address this discrepancy, our school has restarted it's Morning Reading Program. This program involves students arriving before school to work with CEAs on their reading accuracy, comprehension, and fluency while under the supervision on our Learning Assistance Teacher. At the end of term 2, we now have 69% of our Indigenous students meeting or approaching expectations on the assessment.
