Progress Reports in Family Access
Progress at the elementary school level is reported using a 4, 3, 2, 1 scale based on the level of mastery students have demonstrated on various standards.
Here are some parent guides you can reference should you have any further questions:

Parent Teacher Conferences & Lost and Found
While you are on site, please feel free to stop by the Lost and Found tables in the front hallway of the school. We plan on donating any items that remain after conferences, so please take a look to see if you find anything your child may have lost.
PTO Support for our School
I have been working with our incredibly gracious PTO over the past few months to enhance our school by either beautifying it or improving the educational experience for our students. We are using funds collected during last year's Fun Run, which also went to fully fund our awesome SMART Lab. Please take note of the canvas photos of the "Life at Walden" displayed around the building when you are at Walden for conferences next week. We are in the process of finalizing the plans for the following purchases as well:
1) New and improved furniture in every classroom across our building, including flexible and more comfortable seating arrangements
2) A mechanical curtain divider in our gym (to be completed next week)
3) New front lobby, conference room and front office furniture
4) A new sound system in the gym
6) A Blue Ribbon Celebration Fund
Our goal is to have these enhancements completed by Portfolio Night in April. A big thank you to our PTO for their generosity and partnership!
