From the Desk of the Principal
Principal's Message |
I am excited and honored to be the principal of Skinner North. As a school community, we offer a strong, accelerated academic program in Literacy and Mathematics and we emphasize teaching the whole child. Our teachers focus a great deal on scaffolding and differentiation of instruction and will work with you and your family to provide a great school atmosphere for learning and personal growth.
We seek to support students as individuals and help them develop the social-emotional skills to be self advocates and thoughtful participants in the world around them.
We welcome and encourage parent participation as committee members, volunteers and chaperones, and as important voices in shaping our school’s climate and culture. This collaboration helps us strengthen our school community and build lasting relationships.
For more details about our theory of action, please read the section below.
Please always feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns or ideas.
Sincerely,
Dr. Katie Magnuson
Principal

Continuous Improvement Work Plan
Our CIWP guides the work and learning we do in the building. Our priorities are focused on Curriculum design including incorporation of cultural relevant materials for students, assessment (design and utilization of classroom based assessment) and rational trust. You can see out plan using the button below.
Assessments and Testing
Students will be assessed, formally and informally, throughout the year. The goal of assessment is to support understanding of students and adjustment of instruction. For the testing schedule, please consult our calendar. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
