Final Assessment Reports
As we approach the end of the academic year, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your continued support and partnership in your child's education journey. It has been a year filled with growth, learning, and achievement, and we are immensely proud of the progress each student has made. I am writing to inform you that end-of-year assessment reports will be sent home with students next week. These reports provide a comprehensive overview of your child's academic performance, highlighting their strengths and areas for further development. We believe these assessments are valuable tools for both students and parents, offering insight into their progress and areas where additional support may be beneficial. Parents should expect a STAR assessment report, Empower progress report, and DIBELS report for students in grades K-5. Please take the time to review these reports together with your child, celebrate their successes, and discuss any goals they may have for the future. This will also provide great insight for goals to work on over the summer.
