I will continue to work with our Superintendent, Mr. Johnson, along with LAPCS to keep you informed, as well as come up with a plan to convey messaging to our families.
Our LAVCA family is strong, and together we will get through this.

It's in the Flight Plan/Be sure to catch it: We added a minor change to the lesson planning expectations for the Magic Calendar in regards to the Daily Formal Assessments (DFA) and Weekly Formal Assessments (WFA). Do not link the responses spreadsheet for your DFAs or WFAs to your Magic Calendar. We will see those results with you in the DDI meetings bi-monthly! Thank you!
We cannot wait to see you all at PD on Friday February 3rd!

All new students who have received a Welcome Call and have attended orientation have been/will be moved into permanent homerooms. However, they will not be moved out of FASL Onboarding rooms unless they have completed all onboarding requirements. Students who have not completed onboarding requirements within two weeks of their enrollment will be/have been put on the tracker as a FAST referral.
Here's a shout out to Rachel and Erin. We were able to get one of our FAST students to attend the Lafayette blended site. Here's what Rachel had to say:
"He loved coming to blended and would definitely benefit."
Thank you, Tom, for persistently working with this family.
Thank you all for what you do!
