FAST PM2 Testing Announcement
Parents, The STAR and FAST Progress Monitoring 2 window is now open! Your child’s teacher has communicated testing dates in a weekly newsletter or email. We are currently in the process of assessing our students one grade level and subject area (reading and math) at a time. Students who are absent on testing days will be allowed to makeup the test(s) missed. The results of each test will be shared with parents once each child in the grade level has completed each test. Please know that this may extend into January 2025. We appreciate your patience as we diligently provide the best testing environment for all students on our campus. Should you have any questions regarding testing, please reach out to Christi Pfaff, Instructional Literacy Coach, at [email protected]. Thank you for your support in learning and we look forward to continuing to watch our students “SOAR” everyday!

CDC updates regarding quarantine requirements after vaccination:
Individuals who have been fully vaccinated –
that is, 2 weeks or more have passed since the second dose in a 2-dose vaccine or the first dose in a 1-dose vaccine series – will not be required to quarantine following exposure, provided he/she does not develop new symptoms of COVID-19.
The Department of Health (DOH) requests that we follow the current contact tracing protocol, regardless of vaccination status. They will contact exposed individuals to ensure no symptoms have developed, research his/her vaccination status in the state system, and provide further COVID education. The DOH will determine if the individual is exempt from quarantine. The Health Services Department, as well as the school nurses, will work diligently to assist students, parents and staff in this process.
