Testing
Next week, we will begin administering our first Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) assessments of the year. Students in Kindergarten through 5th grade will be tested in reading and math throughout September.
The MAP test helps identify strengths, growth areas, and guides instruction. Parents will receive results during October conferences. To help your child prepare, ensure they get a good night’s sleep and a healthy breakfast.
Please contact your child’s teacher for specific dates and times. For questions, reach out to Mrs. Danielle.
Note: The MAP test is an approved Step Up For Students assessment, ensuring compliance.
PBL Showcase
This month, each class will research key events from a specific era (1900s–1990s) for our Project-Based Learning unit. The showcase will culminate in the Eras Decades Bash on September 26.
Students are encouraged to dress in attire that reflects their decade or present an alternative project such as a poster or artifact. Parents are invited to attend, learn about the eras, and enjoy the class presentations.
More details will be shared via Procare and email. We look forward to celebrating our students’ creativity and learning!
