| How is our school doing overall? |
| Accountability and assistance levels |
| Our school |
| Not meeting gap narrowing goals |
| Our district |
| One or more schools in the district classified into Level 4 |
Most schools are assigned a level from 1-5, with those meeting their proficiency gap-narrowing goals in Level 1 and the lowest performing in Levels 4 and 5.
A district is typically assigned a level based on the level of its lowest performing school. Placing schools and districts into levels helps districts know which schools need more support,
and helps the state know which districts need the most assistance.

| What else should you know about our school? |
Thorndyke Road School is committed to meeting the individual strengths and needs of students and families while supporting them in their journey to become contributing members of their community. Our commitment to prepare students as they become college and career ready is evident through implementation of our best practices of focused direct differentiated instruction in reading and writing across the curriculum. Student progress is monitored by our school based literacy team and assessed frequently to ensure students are receiving targeted instruction.
We value and foster home/school partnerships and provide families with opportunities to become involved with their child's learning. To foster these partnerships, we provide academic based school-to home activities that support their children with increased practice and/or independent application of strategies of skills learned at school. In addition, we are fortunate to offer students the opportunity to participate in instrumental lessons during the school day, or become a member of our School Chorus. A significant number of our students are members of the strings, winds, or chorus music group, and perform at various school sponsored concerts throughout the year. These programs and partnerships also strengthen our school community and promote the academic and social growth of our students. |
