iPads to Stay at School During CMAS Testing- FOR ALL GRADES–As we approach CMAS testing, we want to remind families that all student iPads will need to remain at school throughout the testing window. Please ensure your child brings their iPad to school on Thursday, April 3rd.  It will remain at school.  Thank you for your continued support and partnership in your child’s education. If you have any questions or concerns regarding CMAS testing, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

CMAS INFORMATION:  This April Colorado students will take end-of-year assessments called CMAS or Colorado Measures of Academic Success. Students in grades 3-8 will take English language arts and math tests. Students in grades 5, 8 and 11 will take science tests. CMAS tests measure student progress on the Colorado Academic Standards, which outline what students should understand, know and be able to do at each grade level and in each content area. CMAS data helps determine if educational goals are being met and if students are on track to graduate prepared for college and career. With this assessment, we can improve instruction for all students and parents can gain important insights.  We will be sending a letter home for the families of the testing grades that will have the CMAS Schedule to see the states and times your child’s grade(s) will be testing. Makeup testing and missed instruction can be avoided by scheduling appointments and vacations for non-testing days and by ensuring that your student arrives at school on time. Your support is appreciated.  Student practice resources can be found here: https://coassessments.com/practice-resources/

FROM THE EARLY CHILDHOOD DEPARTMENT

Children are engaged in a hands-on learning activity with small, bee-shaped robotic toys on a mat. A boy in a gray hoodie excitedly reaches out toward one of the robots, while a girl with long brown hair also reaches out, appearing focused. Another boy in a blue striped shirt watches with his hands covering his mouth, expressing excitement. The background features a classroom setting with white walls, and other children are partially visible participating in the activity.
