Bundle Up:
As a reminder, it is important that students wear heavy coats, snow pants, boots, gloves, and hats for recess. We get a lot of wind on the playgrounds which makes it feel much colder. Some students have been coming to school in very light sweatshirts or jackets and are freezing by the time recess is over. If your child needs any of these items, please contact the office. Please remember that we will continue to go outside unless the windchill is zero or below.
IREAD Information - 3rd Grade
The week of March 18th, third grade students will be taking the Indiana Reading Evaluation And Determination (IREAD-3) Assessment. The Indiana Department of Education developed this assessment in accordance with Public Law 109 “requiring the evaluation of reading skills for all third grade students." This legislation was developed to ensure students can read at grade level prior to fourth grade. This assessment will be used to measure foundational reading standards through grade three and is based on the Indiana Academic Standards. The link below includes an IREAD Item Sampler.
