Violet Views

We have a short week this week.

We have no students Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Monday 16th. Enjoy the short break. Teachers will be here Wednesday and Thursday for professional development, and will be back Monday for parent teacher conferences.

Kindergarten students will return on Wednesday!

Be sure you share the flyer OR tell your server that you are there for the Violet Fundraiser.

SAVE THE DATE! October 13th is a NO SCHOOL day.

Take your family for lunch or dinner at TGI Fridays on 256, and 15% of your order will come directly back to Violet Elementary. Good food, and a good cause!

We will have our 1st ever i-ready spirit week upon our return next week. We are looking for high accuracy when completing lessons. Homeroom prizes to be won.

If we were unable to make our Watch D.O.G Dad kick off Pizza Party, but would like information, please check out the attached document.

We would love to have many positive male role models in the building.

Third grade students ONLY, will take the Ohio State Test in English Language Arts on Tuesday, 10/24 and Wednesday, 10/25.

Part One of the assessment will take place on Tuesday, 10/24

Part Two of the assessment will take place on Wednesday 10/25

Each day testing is 90 minutes long and will begin promptly at 9:30am. Please ensure your child gets a good nights rest, eats a nutritional breakfast, and comes with their chromebook fully charged on each test day.

This November, students in second and third grade will take the NNAT3 Cognitive Assessment. This is an online assessment.

Please ensure that your child's chromebook is fully charged prior to testing day.

Please look for more communication in the coming weeks from your child's teacher regarding the exact test day as this has yet to be determined. The test will take approximately 30 minutes.
