Mr. Amos selected as Classified Employee of the Year Our wonderful custodian, Amos Coleman, was selected as the FSUSD Classified Employee of the Year. We are so excited for Amos. Our student leadership group has some special events planned for him. Be sure to give him a fist bump if you see him. He'll appreciate it. MAP Testing Window Closes MAP Testing (District benchmark testing in ELA and Math) is now closed. We have just a few make-ups. Overall, our students saw tremendous growth. With each class in 1st-5th taking two assessments, 24 of the 38 test sessions saw growth at more than 100% of expected growth. MAP is a great indicator of potential CAASPP performance. For more information on Spring CAASPP testing, check out:  http://www.caaspp.org/faqs/about.html . Testing will start in late April and will run through May. Attendance Numbers Our attendance numbers for last week:  Top Four Classes: Byland, Baker/Spence, Ellsworth, White TK--85.49 K--96.

Amos Coleman nominated for Classified Employee of the Year Our head custodian, Mr. Amos, has been nominated as one of Fairfield-Suisun's Classified Employees of the Year. All of the nominees will be recognized on Thursday, February 22nd at the FSUSD District Office starting at 6:00 p.m.  Updates and Dates for this week and beyond are below. Check them out and have an amazing week! 1. MAP Testing Continues : MAP Benchmark Testing continues this week for grades 1-5. The results are pouring in and we are still a ton of growth from many of our students. The best thing you can do to help your student is to have them at school, on-time, and with a healthy breakfast or snack. Also, just remind them that the test is ALL about growth. We aren't measuring them against the other students or against a fixed measure. Instead, we are looking to see that they continue to grow. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's teacher anytime. 2. PTA Nomina
