Treasure Island Elementary School

North Bay Village Commission Meeting Tuesday, December 10, 2013

Dr. Sherry Krubitch Principal of Treasure Island Elementary School was honored for her apparent success in turning TIES around structurally and academically. Dr. Krubitch was surprised and pleased with the recognition. She explained how much progress has been made because of the one hundred and thirty thousand dollar North Bay Village participation for the IB Program. How last year and the year before that resistance from the staff had been overcome. The money provided allowed for staff education, training and acceptance of the global program approach that is the signature of the IB Program. This has allowed for a successful campaign to involve the students and their parents.  Dr. Krubitch is very hopeful and expects North Bay Village to continue funding the program. It would be fair to mention that Treasure Island Elementary School was downgraded and received a “C” grade.  This provides an excellent opportunity to see how effective the IB program can be and if it can influence a better grade then “C”. Additionally, it can be view as an improvement performance measure to justify the $ 130, 000.00 yearly contributions by North Bay Village. More to come in other NBV matters…

 

Honestly Opinionating
