\nPrincipal Report-
\nSafety Report- We had talked about doing monthly safety presentations\/videos for the students,
\nMrs. Tarango has not yet looked into this but will. The school has not had any incidents happen
\nsince the park near Denny was closed down, we have not had as many homeless people around
\nthe school either. The new building is wired for a security system. There will be one way in
\nthrough the Gym and that will be locked once school starts. Mrs. Tarango and Juliann will get
\ntogether to find a program for teen dating violence month through health class. We need to
\npromote \u201cSee Something Say Something\u201d.
\nCompletion date for the new building is scheduled to be around spring break, no later than
\nMarch.
\nThe Governor put a moratorium on PARCC testing, but we will still have testing. The test that
\nwe will be using is produced by Pearson who is the same company who produces the PARCC
\ntest. The new test is a different assessment and the comparative data will only be compared
\nwithin our state. Math and LA will be three 60-minute sessions. Algebra will be two 90-minute
\nsessions, it is different because they have to pass it for high school credit. Breaks will also be
\nscheduled. There are still 5 levels of proficiency. If the test is done online results will be
\navailable within two weeks. All the info will be sent out. This test is a transition test until we
\nfind out what the standard will eventually be for coming years.
\nMid-term assessments are close to completion and preliminary data is showing overall progress.
\nNumbers will be available at our next meeting.
\nWe do not have to make up the snow day because we far exceed instructional minutes. We are
\nstill scheduled to end on the May 22. If there is going to be a delay or closure of school it needs
\nto be made by 6am in the morning. You have to get it on the TV station. If you have called a
\ndelay and need to have a full closure it needs to be announced by 8am.

\nalcohol, and other addictions. They want to present to parents and see if it is something that we
\nwant them to present to our students. They would also provide to each student \u201cdon\u2019t meth with
\nus\u201d bracelets and t-shirts at no charge to the school.

\nattend meetings.
\nTitle 1 is a great source of funding to help us to do better for our kids. Mrs. Belmonte Sapien
