2018-19 School Calendar Year Round – Board Approved

Dear Parents,  Please see information below from Eastlake Middle.

Compacted Math Assessments

Math Placement for Compacted Math (accelerated math course to prepare student to take IM 1 in their 8^th grade year) will take place at the ELM Pavilion at 3:30 on April 15, 16 and 24.  The test is supposed to take one hour depending on the student.  The testing period will end at 5:00 to accommodate for set-up and check-in.   All students (even if they are in DLI) should be encouraged to take the test for equity purposes.  Students should bring a #2 pencil.  The test will cover material from 6^thgrade.  We will be using test results (85 % and above) and teacher recommendations in regards to placement into the Compacted Math Sequence.  Parents will be notified of results and placement suggestions. If there are any questions/concerns, please email Dalila Espinosa at dalilia.espinosa@sweetwaterschools.org.

Registration

Registration will be an ongoing process throughout April. In order to better serve our community, we are allowing for walk-in registrations.  These walk-in times will take place from 9-12 Monday through Thursday and 1-3 on Fridays.  We will also have two night registrations on April 16^th and 17^th from 4:00 – 7:00 PM.  We do require parents/guardians to book a time for the night events to avoid long lines.  To expedite the process, parents must come prepared with the required materials which can be found on our website (elm.sweetwaterschools.org under the parent tab) for either walk-in or night events.   The sign-up tab will be up shortly, so please check frequently for updates.  We look forward to serving you and making the registration process more convenient for our parents.    Please email Karina Campos with any questions/concerns at karina.campose@sweetwaterschools.org.  Click here for online registration information

Also, we will have a Coffee with the Principal Meeting on April 16^th at 8:30 AM in the library if parents want to do a meet and greet.  On the same night, we will have a PTSO meeting at 6:00 PM in the library and we invite future Triton parents to join us this evening to explore volunteer and community leadership opportunities.  Our parents are our partners in this process!

Thanks everyone.  Let me know what I can do better to serve you and thank you for sending us awesome students.

CVESD and Magic 92.5 FM  launched a perfect attendance campaign on Friday, March 1. Here are the highlights of our “School is Where the Magic Happens” Perfect Attendance Campaign:

• The time period is Friday, March 1, 2019 through Friday, May 31, 2019.
• Magic 92.5 FM will provide randomly drawn winners with prize packs (eligible students are those with perfect attendance).
• Grades eligible are TK – Grade 12.
• All schools, District and charter, are eligible.

Good attendance helps children do well in school and eventually in the workplace. Good attendance matters for school success, starting as early prekindergarten and throughout elementary, middle and high school. “School is Where the Magic Happens” is an engaging reminder of the importance of good attendance.

Thank you in advance for ensuring your child attends school every day.

We have a new addition on campus!  Near the YMCA in the south Drop off loop you will notice a donation bin.  You may drop off clothes and shoes you no longer need.  This saves all these items from going to a land fill.  The company empties the bin weekly, donates the clothes and plants trees all over the world.  Quarterly, our school receives money based on pounds.  This is a win win!  Clean out your closets, help others, help the environment and raise money for your school!  All proceeds will go towards the beautification of our campus!  All Lost and Found items not picked up by the last day of each quarter will be donated to the bin
