NWEA this week

Congratulations to Nagham for having the most minutes on edmentum last week! This week who ever has the most minutes on Edmentum reading will be student of the week for next week.

Tuesday students will start taking the NWEA reading assessment. Please assure your child has a quiet place to work with minimal distractions while wearing headphones. Please do not read any questions or answers to your child. Cameras must be on per district. We will start the assessment in the morning. Thank you for your support.

Happy New year! And……NWEA next week


Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a safe and relaxing break.

Congratulations to Omar and Naya for completing all 15 ribbons in the study island assignment! WOW! What a great accomplishment. Those two have no homework this week!

I would also like to recognize Hanine for spending 10 hours on Edmentum over the break! Hanine will also not be required to hand in homework this week.

I think we are off to a great start of the new year! Thank you for your support.

We will be starting the NWEA math and reading assessments next week. The best way to practice for this to to go onto Edmentum. Edmentum is based on student NWEA scores from the fall. Thank you.
