Dear Families,
Thank you so much for joining us at Open House last night—it was a joy to welcome you into our classrooms and share a glimpse of the learning journey ahead. Our teachers are energized and excited about all that this year holds.
In the coming weeks, room parents will be reaching out to help you stay connected.
As always, please reach out to me or any member of our staff if we can be of help or support along the way.
In partnership,
Dani Reynaud, Lower School Director
School Photos
Professional photographers will be on campus later this month. Our Lower School photo day—when both individual and class group pictures will be taken—is scheduled for Monday, September 29.
You will receive an email from our Tech Department with instructions for how you can view and purchase the photos.
Parent Education Sessions
In the Lower School, we’re exploring ways to offer ongoing parent education opportunities that strengthen our community and support you in your role as partners in learning. Please take a few minutes to complete this form and let us know which topics and opportunities would be most meaningful for you.
What's Coming Up?
Please be sure to check our September Lower School Events Calendar.
LS MAP TESTING
The lower school will take its Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) assessments on October 7-9. The tests are adaptive to students’ answers and provide one of the many data points teachers use to meet the learning needs of our students.
All students test in Math, Reading, and Language Usage. The student-support staff ensures that all students who require accommodations will receive them. The divisional coordinators offer makeup opportunities Oct. 10, 14-16 for students who were absent or did not finish during the allotted times.
Students are requested to bring a book to read quietly after they finish their exams.
For more information, see the NWEA Family Toolkit. Parents will receive an email with the results toward the end of October.
If you have any questions, please contact your child's teacher or the K-12 Curriculum Coordinator at JasonDavis@asmadrid.es.
