   Dix Street is a great place to learn and build lasting relationships.  I am pleased to work in a place where the staff, parents, and community are focused on a quality education and “Linking students to the world.”  We have state-of-the-art facilities combined with technology that ensures preparation for the 21st century. 
   At Dix Street, we have three basic goals where we focus our attention and measure outcomes. 
  • Writing.  Students learn about the writing process, content, style and grammar using research based methods.
  • Reading. We use brain research to guide and inform our literacy decisions; our district-wide Rewiring the Brain program has received accolades from state organizations and continues to effectively teach early literacy skills and comprehension strategies.
  • Math facts. We use best practices as well as differentiated instruction to address each student’s needs.  Additionally, we are using DELTA MATH screeners to assess each student’s progress and design specific interventions to meet their unique needs.
   The Dix Street team is dedicated to the students of Otsego, and I am continually amazed at the level of support from this community.  If you would like to hear more about the programs and services offered at Dix Street Elementary, please give me a call. I would be delighted to hear from you!
