Principal Update 

We have officially completed our CMAS assessments!  A special shout out goes to Ms. Distel and 

Mrs. Schreiner, our CMAS coordinators, as well as our teachers and proctors!  They worked 

diligently to created a sustainable schedule for our 3rd through 5th grade students, ensuring that 

students completed the state required assessments in a calm and supportive environment.  We also 

want to recognize our incredible 3rd through 5th grade students for their perseverance and hard 

work through the CMAS testing window.  We are so proud of their efforts!

Have a great weekend,

The Learner Profile for the month of April is “Knowledgeable”.  Those who are knowledgeable explore concepts and ideas that have local and global significance.  In doing so, they acquire in depth knowledge and develop understanding across a broad and balanced range of disciplines. 

Activities for Parents

• Encourage your child to read books at home that correspond to the topics being covered in school. 
• If English isn’t your primary language, then encourage books in their mother tongue. This will help make them more meaningful and create connections to what is being taught in their classroom in English. 
• Ask your child about what they are learning in school and engage them in conversations about it.
  -”Why do you think that was an important thing to know?”
  -”Can you think of anything happening in the world today that might be similar to that aspect of history?”
• Encourage your child to become more familiar with the acts of kindness throughout the world and how they can replicate those acts of kindness in their own lives and the lives of others.
