Testing Information
- September 23-October 11: Fall DRA
- Remember all new students need DRA and Iready Assessments
Staff Updates
- Make sure you enter all DRA’s on SIS. Every student needs to be entered into SIS, even if they didn’t pass the next level. If you are not sure on how to do this, please see me or read the DRA Guidelines in the South Park Staff Handbook.
- Assessment Wall needs to be updated!

Grade Cards
- Grade Cards are due Monday morning!
- On the Student's Reading Level Portion, you may only choose S, NI, or U. The grade cards do NOT give us an option to put the actual DRA Level, we only do that on Progress Reports. If you need help or if this doesn't make sense, please let me know.
- Make sure to to attach the DRA Continuum to your Grade cards (First and Second Only at this time). This is on the South Park Handbook Book in Google.
- If student's are on and IEP or are ELL, make sure to mark their Grade Cards Modified Curriculum in those areas. Check with the Special Education Team on whether those students earn a P or an S if you haven't done so already.
- You can leave comments on the grade card this quarter if you want, but if you'd rather save it all for conferences, I am fine with that too!
- Don't forget to print out Iready pages to go home as well! I sent out directions for this.
