Principal's Message

Dear Holliman Families,


Now that students in grades 1-5 have completed the iReady Diagnostics for Reading and Math, your child's teacher may be assigning iReady My Path lessons for homework. Students can access iReady on their Chromebook and should spend about 10 minutes each night working on these lessons which are personalized for your child. iReady also offers many learning games that students may enjoy. For more information regarding the iReady platform, please visit the iReady Central Resources/Family Center. If you have specific questions regarding your child's iReady diagnostic scores, please reach out to you their classroom teacher.

Kindergarten students will be taking the iReady Diagnostics for reading and math within the next few weeks. We like to give Kindergarten students more time to adjust to the Kindergarten classroom environment before having them engage in this diagnostic.


If you should ever have any questions or concerns, I can be reached directly via phone call or text at 401-871-4145. I can be reached via email as well, kimberly.cabana@warwickschools.org.


Please visit our website holliman.warwickschools.org for frequent updates. Also, please be sure to continue to opt in to receiving text messaging alerts and push notifications as this is a great way for families to receive accurate up to the minute updates.


Sincerely,

Mrs. Cabana, Principal
