Administering STAR test

AR is back up and ready so 2nd-5th grade classes visiting the library will take the STAR assessment  to determine student ZPDs.  If your class didn’t take the STAR assessment this week you will have to wait til the week of September 17th.

For help administoring the STAR test download the STAR test.pdf.  You may also have the handout from last year and don’t need to download and print it out again.  Please email or see me for any other questions that may arise regarding the STAR assessment.

Acceptable Use Policy

AAAHHHHHHH!  The AUP police are coming!  Just kidding.  Make sure you get the AUPs signed and turned into Susan ASAP.  The deadline in the 14th of September.  If you need more forms put a note in Craig’s box.  Back to School Night on September 13th would be a great time to get any missing ones signed.  The district will start disabling student accounts soon after the 14th.
