| We have the privileged of working with your children each and every day. You put a great deal of trust into our teachers and staff and we don't take that for granted. We rely on the partnership that we have with families to have the highest social, emotional, and academic impact on students as possible and we value your role in this educational journey. There has been a great deal of "firsts" for many of our families this year and I would like to publicly say, thank you! Thank you for being our partner. We care about your children want their time at Clover Ridge to be a positive experience. Please contact the office if you have questions or concerns!

Over the next few weeks, students will be completing the NWEA Measures of Academic Progress Assessment (MAP). These are achievement tests that are given in the fall and the spring which assist our staff both in measuring growth and assessing progress. Staff will be using these results as one data point to accurately place students in appropriate reading and math flex groups. For most students, flex groups will begin on September 25.

With the addition of 125 new students to the building, we developed a new schedule that was designed to meet the multiple demands of academic programming, specialist time, lunch/recess, etc which was no small task. As we have been monitoring traffic flow in the building, and assessing the implementation of the schedule, we have determined some tweaks are needed. This may impact your child's daily schedule. We have been working with staff to make the adjustments and will get into a new routine quickly. These changes will begin on Thursday, September 21st.
