Dear Parents of

THE SCHOOL BOARD OF BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA

December 14, 2016

Dear Parents of ,

I am excited to announce that your child has been selected to participate in our “2016 TTMS Literacy Workshop”. This program is a 10-week learning opportunity for students to improve their literacy skills beyond the daily language arts classroom.

Goals of the program:  Provide time for selected students to interact with reading and writing resources two days per week in a learning environment that promotes high expectations.  Use research-based materials and teachers with increased student performance as a target.  Improve reading and writing (ELA) outcomes for selected students.

The TTMS Literacy Workshop will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the school day. Your child will participate in the workshop during their scheduled elective period on one of those days. Workshop student to teacher ratio will be smaller than core classroom size. The workshop will begin January 5, 2016 and will end on March 31, 2016. There will be no workshops during the weeks of March 7th – 28th.

Funding for this program is being provided by the School Advisory Council of Tequesta Trace. There is no cost to students that participate in the workshop.

Please consider the opportunity for your child to participate in this limited educational opportunity by completing the bottom of this letter including your signature. Feel free to contact Mrs. Manning, our literacy coach, if you have questions or concerns. She can be reached at 754-323-4441 or [email protected].

Thank you,
