This dedicated time will allow teachers to provide targeted intervention and enrichment opportunities in ELA and math, ensuring every student can grow from their individual starting point. On Wednesdays, we&apos;ll focus on character education, fostering empathy and perseverance among our students. I encourage everyone to stay engaged and actively participate in these new initiatives, as your involvement is crucial for our collective success. Please look out for further communications regarding assessments and how they will inform our instructional strategies.</description></oembed>
