Many thanks to the families who participated in our orientation! The Family Handbook that you received is a wonderful tool and resource for you to become familiar with our schools policies and procedures.

STAR Assessment
STAR Assessments are short tests that provide teachers with personalized learning data for each student. Students may take a STAR test for early literacy, math, or reading. Teachers analyze the data they receive from STAR Assessments to learn what students already know and what they are ready to learn next, to monitor student growth, and to determine which students may need additional help. These tests are research-based and scientifically proven to help teachers guide each student on their unique path to proficiency.
