Superintendent Wyeth Jessee walks through what that means for third-grade readers, how attendance climbed from 81% to 86%, that’s about 215 fewer chronically absent students, and why suspensions dropped from 865 to 200 by focusing on relationships, routines, and engaging instruction. We also preview the year’s culture shifts—a no-cell-phone district, targeted teacher mentoring, and a three-day Summer Summit—and invite families to the Back-to-School Celebration, Friday, Aug 22 at 4:00 PM, Olympic Middle School. Need a backpack, medical check, food support, or transportation info? It’s all there, district-wide. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/8b4aqzT8tkdH6MLi186ujKO11Bhjd2UG29GWtIKSvFE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yM2Nh/YzMyMmYwODliZGZh/Nzk1ZTVjNjIzOGZm/NGVkNC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
