We have a new goal for this year!
Congratulations to all the Conte students, parents, teachers, administrators and staff who worked so hard last year! What a wonderful achievement on the MCAS scores. We must keep reaching higher this year. We are a team: students, parents, administration, teachers and staff. We are now in training. Body, Soul and Mind! Eat right, exercise, get plenty of rest, work hard. Our students need our help to learn all they can to succeed in Life. We can help them do it!
"It's the "Eye of the Tiger, It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival..."
"Risin' up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man [school] and a will to survive."
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
MCAS information
MCAS is the main focus these days. We are all working together as a team. Administration, teachers, parents, students, and staff are all working to make this year a turning point for Silvio O. Conte Middle School. On a daily basis, at school, we are showing the students what it will take to be successful and improve. At home, parents and family are helping with homework and projects. With this knowledge and the help from everyone, our students will not only improve but will have acquired knowledge that will help them for the rest of their lives. Successful improvement on the MCAS this year will mean that we are a school that can provide excellent instruction. We know this to be true, but we must prove it! Thank you for your efforts! Keep up the good work!
Please click on the web link above for the actual site at the Massachusetts Department of Education. This site explains how the MCAS test questions are provided and scored. By viewing this site, you will be better able to understand what is expected of our students. We will be using these examples in class instruction to help the students learn what they need to answer.
