Time for Paws The Proficiency Assessment for Wyoming Students (PAWS) will be given during the weeks ofMarch 8 to Apri l 8. In an effort to improve student performance, SVHS administration met with a group of 11th grade students and came up with the following recommendations to help students give their best effort on the PAWS. --Seniors who score proficient of advanced on all portions of the PAWS will be eligible for a longer lunch. The schedule for next year will be 1 st period, 2 nd period, Guided Reading, then lunch. Seniors will be excused from Guided Reading if they are proficient or advanced on all portions ofthe PAWS. --Seniors who score proficient or advanced on all portions of the PAWS or students who show improvement on all portions of the PAWS from their 8 th grade to 11 th grade scores will be eligible for a class trip at the beginning of their senior year. --An auction will be held at the beginning of the senior year. “Braves Bucks” will be earned by performing well on PAWS and on the ACT or by having few or no disciplinary referrals, tardies, or absences from the first week of February 2010 to the date of the auction. SVHS staff requests that students limit their appointments from March 8 to April 8. It is also recommended that students get plenty of rest and eat a good breakfast.
