April Testing
The 3rd, 4th and 5th graders will be testing this month for CMAS and ANet. We would like to remind parents to consider this before scheduling any appointments for your student during this time. It is essential that all students are at school to be tested. Also, please make sure they are getting plenty of rest prior to the testing window. Students are always encouraged to eat a healthy breakfast at the beginning of each day.
Remember to remind your students that they have all the potential and to do their best.
Parent Teacher Home Visits
With the Parent Teacher Home Visit (PTHV) Program, the goal is to start by building a strong and positive relationship between the family and the school.
The visits begin with the teacher asking about the family's hopes and dreams for their child. By involving the parents and families, we create a better chance of success for students. Visits don't necessarily have to take place at your home; they can also be in public areas like parks, libraries, cafes, etc. If you would like to schedule a home visit with your child's teacher, please contact the main office phone line at (720) 424-5150 or speak directly to your teacher.
