Hello and Happy Friday,

Please CLICK HERE for slide deck from the 9th and 10th Grade College Family Meeting Wednesday evening. Please let you counselor know if you have any questions!

Please don’t forget to join us for the “Western Harvest Festival” this coming Wednesday, October 27, 6pm-8pm. This event will take place in the West Plaza at 201 N. Douglas St. There will be games, food, and a raffle! Make sure to dress in your best western attire! (This is not a Halloween event, so no other costumes, please.)

Recently your learner sat for the MAP assessment. In the coming days you will be receiving the results of that assessment in the form of a “Family Report”.  The “Family Report” is being mailed to your home and should arrive in a few days. Please take time to review the “Family Toolkit” published by NWEA which provides insight and information on how to understand MAP Assessment in general and how to interpret/read MAP results. The Family Toolkit can be accessed here:

https://www.nwea.org/the-map-suite/family-toolkit/.

Please review the entire toolkit, but pay particular attention to the “What is MAP Growth” video, “Meet the Family Report” blog and the “Family Guide to MAP Growth” guide.

Here is a sample family report, please click on this link: GR_SampleFamily

We want to make sure that if you have any questions about the scores once received, Dr. Johnson along with your learner’s counselor and teacher would be happy to coordinate a meeting to discuss and support you as you review your learner’s scores. Any questions about MAP, please email Dr. Johnson at kjohnson@davincischools.org

As always, CLICK HERE for the link to the Daily Tracker, a “one stop shop” for all assignments, due dates, test dates, homework, projects, etc.! Its a great tool to use to build your asynchronous at home work days. Students and families can both use it to stay on top of all classes.

There is a normal cohort schedule next week: Mon/Thurs and Tues/Fri, 9:15am-3:15pm.

The weather forcast for Monday currently is predicting 90% chance of rain. For our Mon/Thurs cohort, please plan accordingly! Umbrella, rain jacket, rainboots will be helpful!
