SUMMER READING MATTERS!

SPRING ELEMENTARY PROGRESS REPORTS (EPR) RELEASED MAY 30th
Teachers are celebrating students’ growth as they complete spring Elementary School Progress Reports (EPRs). EPRs will be released to parents on Wednesday, May 30th, through Parent Portal. You will be able to access your child's EPR on this date by following the directions below.
· Click on the Parent Resources Tab
· Select Elementary Progress Report and use your credentials to log in.
· Click "View Elementary Progress Report" under your child's picture
As you may recall, you are able to view your child’s information in two ways. The highlights page includes a snapshot of how your child performed on content standards (reading, writing and math) and how your child met our school expectations of Going for the G.O.L.D. Also included in the highlights page are general classroom comments and individual student comments. The comprehensive view allows you to see how your child did on all subject areas and specials. You are able to view any additional comments for the specific content areas under the comprehensive view. You are able to access both formats by clicking on the links at the top of the EPR.

STARTING THE 2018 -2019 SCHOOL YEAR
Next year all students in grades K-5 will start a full day of school on Thursday, August 9. We will begin the day as a school community with an opening flag ceremony. The flag ceremony will begin at 8:30 AM on the front black top. Students should plan on meeting their classroom teacher on the blacktop prior to 8:30 AM.
We continue to believe that it is essential for students meet their teacher and visit their classroom prior to the first day of school. Families are asked to sign up for a 30 minute time slot on Monday, August 6, to visit their child's classroom. Please see the available times below. You may bring your child’s school supplies with you. School supplies purchased through the PTO will be delivered to your child’s classroom (See flyer for new school supply kits below).

On Friday, August 10, we will resume our rolling start and students will enter the school on their own between 8:20 AM and 8:30 AM. Staff members will escort students who need additional assistance to their classrooms. To ensure all students’ safety, we ask that parents
* Not drop off their child before 8:20 AM
* Say good-bye to their children outside of the building
Supervision, including cross walk supervision, will not be provided prior to 8:20 AM so it is essential that students not arrive prior to that time.
In an attempt to gain more targeted information regarding your child’s academic strengths and needs, Gold Rush will continue to hold an assessment day on Tuesday, August 28. Each child will come to school for one hour on August 28 to complete classroom assessments. Having students complete assessments with their teacher after they have been in school for a few days allows students to adjust to classroom practices and procedures. The assessments administered will allow educators to alter their instruction to meet your child’s individual strengths and needs.
Parents will be able to sign up for a time during the assessment day using the online conference scheduler starting in mid July. You will receive a link to the scheduler via email with your express check in information. Because we value the information we obtain on these days it is imperative that all children complete the assessments on August 28. At the end of your child’s assessment hour you will meet your child in the gym where school photos will be taken.
