May 11-15

test-anxietyThis week students will continue with District and state assessments. Over the last two weeks our 3rd and 4th graders have completed the Smarter Balanced Common Core Assessment (SBAC) and our 5th graders have completed the California State Science Standard Test. This week our 5th graders will take the SBAC and next week our 6th graders will take it. In addition our Kinder through 2nd  graders have or will be taking the District Local Measures assessments in Reading, Math and Writing. All of this information will help to provide a snap shot of how students are performing towards grade level standards. Remember to encourage your children to get a good nights sleep, eat a good breakfast and most importantly not stress out. We want students to know that although important, this one tests is one piece of information that helps to identify the strengths and gaps in their learning, which in turn helps to inform their teachers when preparing their lessons. Thank you for your support.
