Please take a few minutes to watch a few brief videos that will help you prepare for the new school year. These videos will ensure that you are familiar with how your child will be engaging with learning online.
We will continue to add more resources throughout the year.

During the weeks of August 31 and September 7, your child will take a MAP® Growth™ test from NWEA® on a computer or tablet. We give students MAP Growth tests to determine their instructional level and to measure academic growth throughout the school year (and from year to year) in Reading and Mathematics.

Imagine Learning is an adaptive literacy program for Pre K through sixth grade students. Through playing games and completing short lessons, students improve foundational skills, and teachers and administrators receive reports on student progress.
