🎉 Celebrating Excellence at Pea Ridge Primary! 🎉
Pea Ridge Primary has been named a Solutions Tree Promising Practices School—a recognition that reflects the dedication, collaboration, and impact of our staff.
To earn this distinction, the Primary team provided three years of data demonstrating how their Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) are driving instruction and improving student learning outcomes.
A Solutions Tree state director visited campus to present the award and recognize the team’s hard work. She also shared with our school board:
“This is not just an award. This is a journey that they've been on. The data is driving the decisions that they're making to ensure that students aren't just being taught, but that they're learning, which takes a collaborative effort.”
👏 Congratulations to our Primary staff for their commitment to ensuring every student learns and succeeds!
