Dear Cherrelyn Family,
On April 9-26, 2019, third-through sixth- graders at Cherrelyn will take the Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) tests that are aligned to the Colorado Academic Standards. This is an important way for us to measure your child's growth and academic achievement. In addition, we use the information to help make our instruction better for all our students. Please be sure your child is at school everyday of testing, is well rested, and eats breakfast (which is free at school.) Students have been working hard everyday, and we can't wait to see how much growth they make on these tests!
For more information, please read this Parent Information from the Colorado Department of Education.
It’s a great day to be a Cheetah! Enjoy the weekend!
Warm Regards,
Rebecca Orsund, Principal
Cherrelyn Elementary
