Webster School Recognized

Webster Elementary School has been selected as one of the top 3 Title I schools to be considered for the National Title I Distinguished Schools Recognition Program. One school will represent the state’s Title I schools that have exhibited exceptional student performance for two or more consecutive years and one school will represent the state’s Title I schools that have made the most progress in significantly closing the achievement gap between student subgroups.

As part of the selection process, a team of Title I specialists will visit Webster Elementary School to tour the school, observe instruction, and talk with teachers on August 27, 2008. .

The two schools that are ultimately selected will be recognized at the National Title I Conference held in San Antonio, Texas from February 19-22, 2009.

Webster School is a great school. My sons (all graduated now) attended and were given a love for reading and learning by the talented and hard-working teachers at Webster. Thank you for giving them a great beginning. You deserve all the praise that you are being given. I say, if Webster School is selected, the teachers should be flown to San Antonio to accept this well-earned reward! Great fund-raiser for the PTO/community to start.
