School Welcome
From the Desk of Principal Robert L. Burnside
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Welcome back to in-person learning! We’ve spent the last two weeks reacclimating our students back into school and focusing on the social and emotional well-being of our scholars. We are entering our 3rd week of school and we’ll be administering 3 major assessments this week: the DRP, MAP Growth ELA and MAP Growth for Math. We know that students often develop anxiety when they hear the phrase “testing,” but we want to assure you and our scholars that the purpose of these assessments is to determine how we can best support our scholars moving forward.
The ability to read well is critical to our children’s success in school and beyond. On Monday, September 27th, we’ll be administering the Fall Degrees of Reading Power (DRP) assessment. The DRP is a test that assesses the reading level at which students can read and understand a text. The DRP will be given two more times this year, in January and again in May. We will be working with you as partners to ensure their continued growth and success as readers. After the administration of the assessment, you will receive a report of how your son/daughter scored and what you can do at home to support their reading progress.
On Wednesday, September 29th and Friday, October 1st, our schools will be taking the MAP Growth assessment in ELA and Math. This is a computerized-adaptive exam that provides questions based on how students are performing. You will also receive a detailed print-out that lets you know how your son/daughter scored.
What we need from you:
· We are asking that scholars bring in their school-issued laptops
· Please ensure that students get enough sleep the night before and eat breakfast the morning of
If you have any questions and/or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to the school.
Yours in Education,
Vanessa Grenan
Testing Coordinator
