PSP  Update: 

Teachers,
Please promote and encourage the students to return the PSP applications this week. I must have the names and addresses of students turned into transportation this week. PSP will be held on Mondays and Tuesdays from 4-6. We will also serve students one Saturday a month. PSP is expected to begin on the 16th of November. If you are interested in working, please see me ASAP. We will have a brief meeting Thursday after school. Please schedule to attend.

Benchmark Testing:

Remember that Friday, November 13th is the absolute last day to have all extended responses scored in Edperformance. There is no exception to this date. Please adhere to the deadline and see me if you need any assistance.

If you have students that need to make up a test, please add their name to the list so that we can administer the test this week.

Thank you for getting the job done the last two weeks with benchmarks! Testing went well despite the issues with the schedule.We will need to adjust testing schedule to ensure we are in compliance in other areas. Thank you for the feedback. Have a terrific week and make it a goal to make a positive difference in a child's life every day!

AP Update

Good morning teachers,

I hope that each of you had a restful three day weekend! If you have not reviewed the video, You Matter, please do. It is just a small reminder of why we all do what we do daily. A special thanks to Mrs.Gonzalez for helping me out at the last minute!

Wednesday we will resume benchmark testing.  Social Studies and Math will be administered Wednesday and Thursday. Be sure to read over the Benchmark at a Glance for important testing information and encourage your students to come to school. We will continue to use the same testing schedule. I understand that we had some students arrive late but remember we blocked off 2 hours for testing so they should still be able to complete their test within the allotted time frame.

Now that we have all have had a moment to refuel! Be sure to reinforce our PAWS Expectations and be Consistent.  Have a great week!
