STAR Testing Schedule

Our STAR testing for grades two through five will be from April 30 through May 18. We ask that you do not schedule appointments or vacations during this time. Participation is an important factor of our API score. Although we are proud of our 877 API score we are hoping to increase this performance. Please make sure your child attends school, gets plenty of rest, and eats a healthy breakfast.

Thank you for your support.

Dr. Vicki Eversole

Accelerated Reader is Here

 

Accelerated Reader is here!  It is a computer program that helps teachers manage and monitor students’ independent reading practice.

It is a supplemental program to:

  • Make essential reading practice more effective for every student.
  • Personalize reading practice to each student’s current level.
  • Assess students’ reading comprehension
  • Build a lifelong love of reading and learning.

Please reference- A Parent’s Guide to Accelerated Reader Questions and Answers

Teacher Wish Lists Online

Highlands PTA has created an account with www.teacherwishlist.com. We have asked our teachers to create a list of items they may need for their classrooms. Please take a moment to see if your child's teacher has started a list. If not, maybe you could offer to help get them started. This is a fast and easy way for the teachers to communicate their needs.

Earn Free Money and Stuff for the School!

There are many programs offered that give the school money with little to no effort by you. Just grocery shopping or buying gas - things everyone does - can earn us free money! And Highlands can definitely use it! Please look at the following pages and make sure you sign up for these fantastic programs.

Nurse's Note

Pertussis (whooping cough) is widespread in our county. If your child is 10 years and older and has not received the "Tdap" pertussis booster shot, please contact your doctor or the health department. Please visit the Contra Costa Health Department's website for more info and coupons.
