We are excited to invite you to our MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) Night on October 1st, from 4:30-5:50, at the Elementary Academy.
MTSS is an important part of how we support the academic, social, and emotional needs of all our students. During this informative event, we will:
- Explain how MTSS works and how it benefits your child.
- Share the various interventions and supports available.
- Discuss ways parents can be involved in the MTSS process.
- Answer any questions you may have.
- Provide valuable information and resources for you to use with your child at home.
We believe that strong partnerships with families are key to student success, and we look forward to working together to ensure your child’s growth and development.
Please review the attached flyer and reach out if you have any questions.
We hope to see you there!

The STEAM Team is excited to bring back our annual Career Day Programs to our Drew Eagles!
This year, we have brought more opportunities for students to be exposed to STEAM careers by introducing Careers Over Cookies for the Senior Academy! Seniors can visit with professionals they are interested in seeing during their advisory period from October 21st-24th.
Do you know anyone that would like to speak to our eager Eagles? With so many opportunities, we’d love your help and input getting speakers and professionals to talk with students. If you have any recommendations, please fill out the EA/JA Form or the Careers Over Cookies Form!
SA: STEAM Careers Over Cookies, October 21st-24th 1:30-2:30 PM
More information can be found about the STEAM Career events here.
Thanks,
