RCSD is proposing to close School 07. We are doing everything in our power to convince the BOE to vote against this move.

A mandated return to iReady and our teachers pivot without hesitation. We are so proud of our students! The deal was 100 lessons with 100% = doughnut celebration. Achievement! #SaveRCSD7 @RochesterTA

@LCMLessons believes that the 5th highest % of growth on the latest NYS ELA assessment is cause to close a successful instructional program.#SaveRCSD7 scored 4.7 points higher than the RCSD average @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

#SaveRCSD7 was the only school in the RCSD to have a performance index above 60% on both of the latest NYS Assessments. However, @LCMLessons is telling the community that we are under performing. @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

#SaveRCSD7 had the HIGHEST average percentage of growth on the NYS math assessment the last time it was held. @LCMLessons wants to close a building and break up a successful formula. @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

Join us at #SaveRCSD7 for a visit with Santa, light refreshments, turkey raffles and most importantly data supported information on why any plan to close our school is a bad idea. We will also show you how to register to speak at the public hearing on 12/15. @RochesterTA

In the 20-21 school year the RCSD implemented a brand new ELA program. The company recognized #SaveRCSD7 as the top performing school. How does @LCMLessons thank us, she proposes to close us! @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

[Virgil I Grissom @SaveRCSD7]

This is your chance to tell the RCSD that overcrowded classes, displaced students and pet projects are not what's best for our children #RCSD7.

Just a few short years ago @VanHenriWhite awarded #SaveRCSD7 the We Can Award because of our improvement on NYS testing. Now @LCMLessons wants to close us for low performance? Seems a bit hypocritical. @BeatrizLeBron1 @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

#SaveRCSD7 provides stability, safety and a sense of home is important . Why would @LCMLessons scatter children to the wind for a 'project'. Our children should not suffer this type of rejection. @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

Stop the RCSD's disastrous plan to increase class sizes by closing and consolidating schools. Sign up to speak at the public hearing on 12/15/2021 with the link below. The meeting link will be sent later due to cyber security issues. @RochesterTA

Why would @LCMLessons dismantle a staff with data proven success. Teachers spark imaginations, build the fire of knowledge and create lifelong learners; not "right sized" classrooms. #SaveRCSD7 @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

#SaveRCSD7 has one of the lowest suspension rates in the @RCSD, we ALWAYS focus on the students' mental well being. That's why they feel safe and supported. Stop @LCMLessons from erasing that work. @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

[Virgil I Grissom @SaveRCSD7]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We are thankful for everyone's continued support, but more importantly we are thankful we get to teach our students every day. Keep the future bright and #SaveRCSD7 @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

[Virgil I Grissom @SaveRCSD7]

It's hard to explain to innocent children that @LCMLessons will remove them from their School 07 family because of test scores even though we have evidence to show high growth. Support #SaveRCSD7 @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

[Virgil I Grissom @SaveRCSD7]

Why would @LCMLessons close down a proven and successful safe space for children? Please support #SaveRCSD7 @BeatrizLeBron1 @VanHenriWhite @KalaniAmy @ricardo_og_roc @RCSDWilla @RochesterTA

@RochesterTA
Please don't let @LCMLessons close @RCSDsch7. Selecting School #7 because 'we need to close one,' is not in the best interest of our children and their families. Give our children more, not less. #BeatriceLeBron1 @RCSDWilla @SaveRCSD7 @ricardo_og_roc
