Mattos Family Update
January 16, 2024
2024-2025 TK, Kinder, and Science Magnet Registrations Happening Now!
So Many Great Things Happening at Mattos!
Dear Mattos Families,
I hope everyone enjoyed their 3-day weekend in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. I've enjoyed walking the campus and seeing students watching his speech in class, writing about what they dream for the world, and discussing what Dr. King fought for. We continue to keep his dream alive not only during this time of year, but throughout the year.
As we reach the halfway point of the second trimester, teachers will be sending home progress reports for students who have growth to make toward meeting grade level expectations. Additionally, students in grades 1-5 are taking the second iReady diagnostic. This is one tool we use school-wide to gauge where students are at toward meeting grade level expectations. Parents can view their child's results in their child's iReady account (log in through Clever). I would encourage parents/guardians to watch this video as it captures what the diagnostic assessments are all about (and what they aren't).
If you haven't had a chance yet, please ask your child about our makerspace and wellness center. We have had many days of different classes using the makerspace during lunch recess. All classes did see our wellness center and will get to use the space soon!
