Testing
During
the month of March, students in grade 1-5 will take spring MAP testing. Your
child’s teacher will let you know the exact testing dates for the reading and
math portions of the test. Also, students in grades 3-5 will take the Writing
portion of the PASS test March 18th and 19th. Please be sure your child gets
ample sleep before testing, and encourage them to do their best on these
assessments.
Make-Up Days
Students
will make up three missed school days per the school system’s calendar on
Friday, March 7, Monday, March 10, and Friday, June 6, based on State law that
requires school districts to schedule three makeup days. Students have missed
six days this school year due to inclement weather. State law also specifies
that missed days beyond the three scheduled days must be made up by scheduling
additional makeup days including Saturdays and/or extending school days. The
school district’s plan for missed days beyond the three scheduled makeup days
is on hold as the Legislature considers a bill that would provide local school
boards with authority to forgive up to five school days beyond the three
scheduled makeup days. Once final legislation is approved, the administration
will consider the impact of and date options for additional makeup days in
making a recommendation to the Board of Trustees.
PTA Information Session
Are you interested in being a PTA board member or taking on a leadership role
as a volunteer? There will be an informal meet and greet to hear about opportunities to volunteer next year. The sessions will be held on Monday, March 3rd from 5:30-6:15 pm before the PTA Meeting OR Thursday, March 6th at 9:30 am. There are several PTA Board and committee chair positions available. We currently have openings for a President Elect, Treasurer Elect and many other board and committee positions. Come find out all the ways you can help Bethel's students and staff in the coming year! If you are interested but unable to attend one of the meetings, contact Stephanie Yearwood at glocksandthe3bears@gmail.com.
