I am pleased to announce that tomorrow marks the start of our staff appreciation week, and the admin team is thrilled to indulge our esteemed charger team. Please find below our schedule of treats for the week ahead!
Starting State Testing (Action Needed)
Thank you for all the preparation for the state testing. Please be sure to follow our Testing Schedule and make sure that you are prepared for the day of testing.
Please be sure to use the Test Administrator Interface User Guide to guide your proctoring of the tests.
Here are some key takeaways.
Testing Script: Please refer to the TA Script of Student Directions for complete instructions on what to say to students and how to guide them through the testing process.
Bags: Please make sure all backpacks, bags, and purses are placed at a distance away from students so that items cannot be retrieved.
Covered Items: Instructional materials for math, English language arts (ELA), and science content within the testing location must be removed or covered. This includes, but is not limited to vocabulary lists, definitions, maps, scientific cycles, mathematics formulas, graphic organizers, problem-solving strategies, etc. displayed on wall charts, students' desks, bulletin boards, nametags, chalkboards, dry-erase boards, or on posters as these might assist students in answering questions.
Student supervision: Students must be actively supervised by a trained TA and are prohibited from accessing unauthorized electronic devices that allow availability to outside information, communication among students or with other individuals outside the test environment, or photographing or copying test content.
Scratch Paper: To maintain the security of ancillary paper materials (e.g., scratch paper, graph paper, glossaries. periodic tables) TAs must direct students to write their names (or some appropriate identifying information) on all papers. TAs must collect and inventory the paper at the end of each test session, and upon completion of the test.
Pause Rules: Students are logged out of the test when they click the Pause button, and then click the Yes button to pause their test. To log back into a test, students will need to have access to their login information (name, SSID, and test session) after pausing their test. The student will be required to log back into the secure browser when they are ready to continue testing. This applies to all online assessments.
MWSD Help Ticket System
Please use the following link on the staff resource page to record technology and facility help tickets.
Teaching and Learning Evidence (Action Needed)
Please be sure to submit at least three items that highlight the teaching and learning in your classroom. Examples could include classroom data, special projects/activities, feedback on student work, a picture of an activity. Please write a 1-2 sentence description for each item.
New Student Enrollment
This week, we have several new students starting school with us. Due to some special educatio needs, we have had to make adjustments to some para's schedules. I appreciate your patience and understanding.
PLC Focus: Committee Work
