The Ferrazzani Friday Update

Happy FriYAY Wolves! It's crazy to think that we are already through another month. Hopefully everyone had two enjoyable snow days and stayed warm and cozy! With the snow days, teachers extended their end of quarter assessments to the end of this week so report cards will be mailed out by the end of next week. You can also be checking PowerSchool for updates on your child's grades throughout the marking period.

Today our 3rd and 4th graders put on an AMAZING Talent Show!! Thank you to Mr Cyrus for organizing the 2nd annual Talent Show for our Upper Elementary students!! Students in K-2 got to watch for their classrooms and cheer on their family and friends as they sang, danced, kicked soccer balls, showed off their knowledge, and show off their art skills! Can't wait to see next year's talent!!!

Our 100th day of school is fast approaching! On February 10th students are encouraged to join in on the spirit of the 100th day and dress as if they are 100 years old!

KG's 100th day is February 9th since they started a day earlier than grades 1-4.

It’s time for ACCESS testing! All multilingual learners will take this annual language assessment during school hours. The test looks at growth in Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking, and it’s an important way for us to see how students are developing their English skills. All testing will be done by our English Language Education (ELE) teachers, and score reports will be shared with families in late May/early June.

Follow along to see students exploring, building, and learning through hands-on science. Scan the QR code below to follow and celebrate STEM learning at CCSL!

Please take some time to review the student handbook for grades K-4. We will ask you to sign off on this when logging into PowerSchool to access your student's grades.

Our goal is to always make sure dismissal runs smoothly and safely.

• ALL Parent Pickup cars should be in the pickup lane (Right-hand drive, closest to the school)
• There should be no cars in the bus lane or parked in parking spots to pick up students
• All cars must pull up to the sidewalk to get students. Students will not be allowed to cross into traffic.
• All parents should remain in their cars to keep the flow of traffic moving
• Students will enter cars through the rear passenger side door.

If you need to change how your student is going home for a day, it needs to go through the front office by 2:00!

Students will also not be able to be dismissed after 3:00. If you need to pull your kiddo out early for an appointment please make sure it is before 3:00 and that the front office is notified earlier in the day.

A new standards-based report card format has been introduced in grades K-4 in the 2025-2026 school year. While parents and students in grades K-4 will continue to view report cards through Power School, the format will look different. Students in grades 3-4 will continue to receive a letter grade for each subject, but will also be assessed using state standards for each subject area, including specials. Kindergarteners will continue to be assessed using only standards. Grades K-2 will be standards only, no letter grades. Teachers will assess students using the state standards to insure clarity and consistency in expectations across classroom and grade levels. The standards-based design will allow more detailed feedback aligned with specific learning goals for each of the subjects, thereby aiding parents, students, teachers and administrators to focus on growth and areas needing additional support.
