F.A.S.T. Testing Dates
This month students in grades Pre K - 6th will be taking Progress Monitoring 1 of Florida's Assessment of Student Thinking (F.A.S.T.)
Testing Dates:
Sept. 7th - VPK - 2nd (ELA)
Sept. 8th - VPK - 2nd (Math)
Sept. 13th - 3rd – 6th (ELA)
Sept. 14th - 3rd – 6th (Math)
Please review the following policies with your student before testing:
- Electronic Devices—Students are not permitted to have any electronic devices, including, but not limited to, cell phones, smartphones, smartwatches, and Bluetooth/wireless headphones/earbuds, at any time during testing or during breaks (e.g., restroom), even if the devices are turned off or students do not use them. If your student is found with an electronic device, his or her test will be invalidated.
- Working Independently—Students are responsible for doing their own work during the test and for protecting their answers from being seen by others. If students are caught cheating during testing, their tests will be invalidated. In addition, FDOE employs Caveon Test Security to analyze student test results to detect unusually similar answer patterns. Student tests within a school that are found to have extremely similar answer patterns will be invalidated.
- Leaving Campus—If your student leaves campus before completing a test session (e.g., for lunch, an appointment), he or she will not be allowed to return to that test session. If your student does not feel well on the day of testing, it may be best for him or her to wait and be tested on a make-up day. Please remember not to schedule appointments on testing days.
- Testing Accommodations—If your student has an Individual Education Plan (IEP), a Section 504 plan, or is an English Language Learner (ELL) or a recently exited ELL, please contact the school to discuss the testing accommodations that will be provided for your student.

The student’s score will be located on the left hand side under Performance Level, i.e.; LEVEL 3. On the right hand side of the score report will explain more in depth what each Level means ranging from a Level 1 to a Level 5.
Level 1—Inadequate, Level 2—Below Satisfactory,
Level 3—Satisfactory, Level 4— Proficient, Level 5—Mastery.
If you would like to meet and discuss your student scores please contact either your student's classroom teacher and/or Mrs. Cirino, Title 1 Coordinator.

ARRIVAL
TRANSPORTATION CHANGES
Early Checkouts:
In order to ensure a prompt and smooth early checkout experience, please plan to arrive
at Jupiter no later than 2:00 PM Monday - Thursday and 12:45 PM on Fridays. Early checkouts are highly discouraged and as such should be limited to emergencies and appointments only. Students who are consistently checked out early are missing important instructional time and are at risk of falling behind academically. Administration will be requesting to meet with parents of students with frequent early checkouts.
LATE PICK UPS
Any child not picked up on time will be sent to the Jupiter After School Program. There will be a onetime $25.00 registration fee in addition to the $25.00 Drop-In charge.
School Committees
We have two parent groups at Jupiter. Our School Advisory Committee (SAC) is comprised of community members, parents, staff and administration. This committee reviews our school improvement goals and other important issues such as school safety and security. We also have a Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). This committee supports our fund raising efforts and organizes amazing family fun events. Both of these committees meet monthly and all families are welcome to attend. Meeting dates are published on our school website and Facebook page. If you are interested in joining either group, please contact your child’s teacher or call the front office for more information.
