π‘ Daily Parent Task: Check your student's take-home folder π‘
Teachers send home materials and books each day. It is the caretakers' job to review the take-home folder, help students with the materials, and read the books. With take-home books, many teachers ask for caretaker feedback on the student's reading. Be sure to read and send the book back to school, so future students can read it.
You will see the results of your students' MAP scores next week. Students will bring them home, but you may not know how to read them. Please let me know if you have any questions, or call your teacher. This resource will help as well.

Kindergarten Pre-Registration is Officially Open until February 28!
Do you have a child entering kindergarten for the next school year? All eligible children turning five years old before Sept. 1, 2025 need to enroll in kindergarten. Email registration@barrington220.org to get your registration link. If you missed the presentation for Kindergarten, here is the link.
Has anyone said your student gets distracted easily, that they may have ADHD, or has trouble focusing?
Schools are required by law to make and follow accommodations when a doctor diagnosis a student. These tests can be expensive. However FREE neuropsychological evaluations are available for students who need it, live in Kane County, and are income eligible. Neuropsychological evaluations can cost families thousands of dollars. These evaluations can provide valuable insights into a studentβs cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning to better support their academic and personal success.
