Eastview Community,

Thanks to everyone who joined our first-ever Back to School Bash! We're collecting feedback from families, students, and staff.

We want to hear from everyone, even if you couldn't join us.

Thank you!

Again this year, we are unable to allow students to ride other buses home with friends. If your child needs to go home with a friend after school, please make other arrangements (i.e. picking the students up from school, waiting until they are home off the bus to pick them up from their home, etc.). Thank you!

VOTE NOW FOR LAKEVILLE 2024 SUN MEDIA READERS CHOICE AWARDS! You can vote once daily per category in every location, and I’m hoping you’ll enter a vote for Eastview! https://apgecm.secondstreetapp.com/Lakeville-2024-RCA/gallery/?group=462161

Voting ends on September 24, 2023. Cherry View Elementary won last year and it’d be fun to change that pattern! First-grade teacher, Jessica Suby, and I received a nice shout-out last year and that felt great - thanks for your continued support! Let’s go Eastview!

All EVE families are invited to join the Panther Prowl SPACE Walk on Thursday, September 28 at 10:00 am where we will celebrate our students’ fundraising efforts.

The Early Bird Incentive deadline is Monday, September 25! Students who get a donation in by this date will receive an early bird incentive prize, a themed lanyard button, a space-themed stress ball, and a space-themed water bottle sticker! Friends/family can also donate via our online donation link: eve23.givesmart.com. Help support and encourage your child to start collecting donations. 100% of the donations support the PTO budget that benefits all EVE students. Thank you for supporting Eastview!

Please consider volunteering at our Walkathon event and/or our Incentive day! Follow the link to sign up today! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090948AAA82AA3F49-20231#/.

At the Walkathon, we would like to recognize and honor parents of Eastview students who have served and are serving in the United States Military. We will honor those in attendance before EVE students sing our National Anthem. We encourage military personnel to come in uniform to stand with their family and be recognized. If you would like to participate, please contact the Walkathon Committee at isd.194.eve.pto.board@gmail.com for more information or details.

Due to the MN Academic Science Standards implementation timeline set forth by the MN Department of Education, Lakeville Area Schools will be phasing in a revised reporting format of the elementary science grades within the Continuous Progress Report. The newly revised format will include the reporting of grade level standards similar to literacy, math and specialist areas. Families will see the existing format, as well as the revised format until all grade levels have implemented the new 2019 MN Academic Science Standards. This revision of the Continuous Progress Report and implementation of the new standards will follow the MN Department of Education timeline.

Elementary Science Standards Implementation and Grade Reporting Timeline

2022-2023 School Year - Grades K & 3

2023-2024 School Year - Addition of Grades 1 & 4

2024-2025 School Year - Addition of Grades 2 & 5

2024-2025 School Year - Implementation of the MCA - IV in grades 5

This timeline coincides with the release of the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA-IV) in Science in grade 5 in the spring of 2025. At the elementary level, the Science MCAs in grade five represent benchmarks from grades three, four and five. As a result, in order to properly prepare for the implementation of the MCA-IV in the spring of 2025, Lakeville Area Schools will be following the elementary science standards implementation timeline as stated above.
