A Message from Ms. Cruz
Welcome to Week 33!
Our 3rd - 6th grade students will have the opportunity to demonstrate what they've learned this year by taking the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress, or CAASPP, assessment beginning on Monday, April 21st. We will have 4 days of testing and it is critical that students arrive on time. Testing will be held on the following dates:
- Monday, April 21st - ELA CAT (English Language Arts Computer Adaptive Test)
- Tuesday, April 22nd - ELA PT (English Language Arts Performance Task)
- Wednesday, April 23rd - MATH CAT
- Thursday, April 24th - MATH PT
- Friday, April 25th - SCIENCE (5th grade only)
Make-up testing will occur on Monday, April 28th and Tuesday, April 29th for students who either did not finish within their testing window or were absent.
We kindly ask for your support in encouraging your student to do their very best. Remind your student that this is their chance to show what they know and how hard they’ve worked throughout the year. Please remind your students to charge their Chromebooks, get a good night sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and do their best!
Thank you for being our partner in education. Together, we can help our students succeed!
Have a great week, Davis Tigers! Go to Davis, Go to College!
Our Tiger Tenets :
BE SAFE.
BE RESPECTFUL.
BE RESPONSIBLE.

Chromebooks
Chromebooks are essential tools for learning in the classroom, used for various applications and tasks. To ensure students have access to the necessary resources, it is expected that students bring their fully charged Chromebooks to school each day. Please note that there is a limited number of loaner devices available. If your student has lost or damaged their Chromebook, please notify their teacher as soon as possible so that the device can be repaired or replaced.
More information about Chromebooks and the Chromebook Care Plan can be found by clicking here.
Volunteering
Adults interested in volunteering in their student's classroom or chaperoning a field trip will need to complete the Volunteer Request Form and be fingerprinted. Please connect with your student's teacher to determine volunteer opportunities. We are currently seeking volunteers to support in supervision of students during lunch between 10:30 am - 1:00 pm. If you are available, please contact the office or scan the QR code.
Morning Dropoff
Please remember that the front gate does not open until 7:40 am as there is no supervision for students prior to this time. It is important that students come to school dressed appropriately, including wearing school-appropriate shoes. If your student comes to school in Crocs or sandals, they will be asked to sit out PE and may not go in the barkbox or onto the fields during recess due to safety concerns.
Students who wish to eat breakfast in the cafeteria should arrive no later than 7:45 am. For students arriving by bus, please proceed immediately to the cafeteria. The cafeteria will be cleared out 15 minutes after the latest bus arrives to ensure that students do not miss instructional time.
Lunch Options For The Week
Picking Students Up
Please remember that if your student has not yet been dismissed and you are in the loading zone, staff will be asking you to park or loop around to allow other parents to load their students who are waiting. We also ask that you model safe behaviors and use the crosswalk. Our Tigers know this is a Tiger Tenet and a way to be safe!
We thank you for your patience and for working with our staff to ensure dismissal occurs smoothly.
Have You Reported Your Students' Absence?
If your student will be out, be sure to call the office at 209-953-8301 to report your their absence. Students who have a medical or dental appointment will need to bring a note from their doctor upon their return.
Additionally, it is important your student arrives on time, ready to learn. School starts at 8:00 am and students are expected to be in their classes at this time.
