Anthem School Updates
August 21, 2019
Early Release information
Dear Anthem School Parents and Guardians,
This is a reminder that on Friday, August 23 school will end 90 minutes earlier than our usual end time. That early release time will be 2:00 for Anthem School. Lunch will be served.
Education is a field that continues to change rapidly and we are dedicated to our staff furthering their commitment to the education of each of our students by meeting the challenges of today’s educational environment. Supporting this commitment includes providing the time for staff to work in Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) each week, at a regularly scheduled time, to collect, review and utilize student data to more effectively serve our students’ academic and behavioral needs. This week Anthem teachers will be focusing work around "How will we know they are learning," question #2 of the 4 Essential PLC questions (previously shared through DVUSD communications). Teachers will be discussing Common Formative Assessments (CFAs)which are assessments collectively created to specifically measure student success on identified essential standards.
Thank you!
Deb Roets & Tina Craig

Band and Choir
Students that start band or choir in middle school transition well into the arts in high school. When students are in band or choir in high school it gives them an instant friend group and can make a big high school feel smaller.
It's not too late to sign up!
Even if your child is not currently in band or choir, swing by the music room on curriculum night to meet Mr. Taylor and learn more about our music program!
