SCHOOL-WIDE INFORMATION FOR THIS WEEK


SBA Testing Continues this Week
Students in grades 3rd-5th will take part in our state’s Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBA) this spring.  5th graders will also take the Washington State Science Assessment. During our testing window, it is especially important your child is present and on time to school. Please see the testing dates to mark your calendar. *Please note: there is always the possibility students may become ill, so make up opportunities will be provided.  Please do not send your student to school when they are ill.

 Testing times for 3rd Grade are 12:30-2:00 and 2:30-3:30
 Testing times for 4th Grade are 11:00-12:00 and 12:45-2:30
 Testing times for 5th Grade are 9:30-11:00 and 1:15-2:45
 Please avoid testing interruptions by not picking up students during these times.
 
Here is a key to better understand the acronyms on our schedule:

  • ELA - English Language Arts (reading and writing)
  • CAT - Computer Adaptive Technology (online test)
  •  PT - Performance Test (providing reasoning and evidence for an answer)

Benefit Concert
Fernwood's Choir and Bad Monkey's will be performing at the Sister Schools Benefit Concert on Tuesday May 13th at 7pm at the Northshore Performing Arts Center, Bothell.  

Tickets can be purchase here at Touchbase. Navigate to "all schools", then "elementary" and then "Fernwood". If you don't have a touch base account, you can log in as a guest. Please feel free to invite as many friends and family as you like. There will be tickets at the door, but we have had this concert sell out, so buying them in advance would be a good idea.  100% of the proceeds go to benefit children in Uganda.
