T. D. BAKER CLOSED CAMPUS 2011-12
Policy
In the interest of student safety T. D. Baker School will continue the “Closed Campus” policy over the lunch hour. This policy was implemented for the 2009-10 school year and was very well received. The "Closed Campus" policy means that during the lunch break T. D. Baker students must remain on the school property for the lunch break. Our goal is to maximize student safety and ensure effective communication between the school and the home. The policy also eliminates lunch fees.

At T. D. Baker School we have determined that reading comprehension is our instructional focus. This is the one thing that we want to do best.
Our official instructional focus statement is:
We believe that all students at T.D. Baker should be able to demonstrate growth in reading for meaning and understanding as measured by performance on internal and external assessments. A specific emphasis on vocabulary, graphically organizing data, and extensive assessments for learning will be the best practices utilized to foster desired improvements.
What does this mean for you?
You can be even more successful at reading and learning.
