NO OUTSIDE DELIVERIES
As many of you recall, last year, we announced that students are not able to receive deliveries from restaurants, apps, etc. during the school day. This decision was made with the safety and security of students and staff in mind.
For clarification:
- Students cannot have lunches sent to them from a delivery service by a parent or guardian or on their own accord.
- Parents and guardians are always welcome to check-in and drop-off lunches or join them for lunch.
- Lunches can only be provided for your child. Due to allergies and other health concerns, food cannot be shared or brought to other students.
Please reach out to the front office for questions or clarifications.
The Middle of the Year Measure of Academic Progress (MAP) screenings are completed. Parents can access their student's score through Skyward.
At Draper, we are always looking for growth in our students and will be working in various ways to ensure that all of our students grow academically, socially, and emotionally during their time with us. Moving forward, students will have many different opportunities in their classes to extend their learning and understanding of our intermediate school concepts in each academic course.
If you have any questions regarding the MOY MAP scores, please reach out to your child's teacher.
When schools give students access to devices and online accounts, an incredible world of learning opportunities opens up — as well as potential dangers. Digital safety is critically important to Draper Intermediate, which is why we are now using Bark for Schools to help us protect our students both online and in real life.
Bark monitors for signs of potential issues like:
● Cyberbullying
● Suicidal ideation
● Sexual predators
● Threats of violence
● And more

Alerts at the first signs of danger When possible dangers arise on school-issued accounts, Bark for Schools sends us alerts so we can address the situation in a timely manner. These alerts also give us insights that help us promote the wellness of the entire student body. Sign up to get alerts with Parent Portal Kids use their school-issued accounts both at school and at home, and families are often in a better position to respond to urgent alerts after hours, on weekends, and during breaks. Earlier this year, you received an invitation to create your free account for the Bark for Schools Parent Portal. As soon as you opt-in, you receive after-hours alerts if Bark detects potentially time-sensitive issues.
