Winter MAP scores will be sent home on Monday in the Monday Folder. Please use these results as a snapshot of your student's progress thus so far this year, and know that this is only ONE of MANY measurements of student success. We will be using these scores to guide each student's PEP (Personalized Education Plan). Ask your student about their PEP plan!!

Please celebrate your student's growth, and if encourage a growth mindset for working hard to make the most of our learning for the final semester. Remember- this is ONE of many measurements of growth. We are very proud of our students, parents, and teachers for their hard work!

Test scores will NOT be sent home for Kindergarten. MAP testing in Kindergarten is meant for preparation for testing in 1st-5th grades and in general, the first MAP test is not an accurate measure of their skills, due to this being the 1st time that the students are navigating the computer in a testing environment.

Wanting to know more about MAP Reports? Please see the MAP parent resource link.

FAQs and a short video on how to read the MAP report is included. See Below!

If you have questions about your student's score, reading the report, or any other celebrations or concerns, please contact your child's teacher.

Parents,

Please remind your students to look through the lost and found. Mornings are cold and as students get warm through out the day by being active, we seem to gather items quickly!

We will have items out front next week- in the morning, the items will be outside, near the H Ave. 1st-3rd grade arrival gates, and in the afternoon, near the 6th Ave dismissal gates.

Parents, We need YOUR help!

To honor our staff, volunteers, and parents who work so hard to make a difference, we have created a "Caught Being Awesome" Google Form. If you recognize someone through this form, the honoree will receive an email from our Superintendent and a "Caught Being Awesome" window decal that can be displayed to encourage others to spread even more love and appreciation.

Click HERE to access the Google Form to nominate someone! - A link to this form is also available on our District web site.

VOLUNTEERING AT VILLAGE AND ECDC

Parents who volunteer at Village hold immense responsibility. Please know that if you volunteer or substitute teach at Village you are held to the same high standards that our teachers hold for confidentiality and professionalism. We will not tolerate violations of this policy, as our students safety and welfare is at stake. If you have any questions or concerns about a student that you are working with, please see the classroom teacher or administration to address your concerns.

All CUSD volunteers are required to:

· Complete a Volunteer Application

· Provide a current photo ID

· Present verification of a negative TB Test within the last 4 years.

· Volunteers who will be supervising students "Out of the line of sight" of the teacher require fingerprinting.

If you have not already submitted your volunteer application and documents, please do so as soon as possible.

Thank you for helping us maintain a safe environment for our students.

Please submit your volunteer application and required documents to Kelley Englehart at the District Office located 201 6th St.
