Students in Kindergarten through Grade 11 will be taking the Exact Path Diagnostic beginning next week.
The Exact Path Diagnostic is a computer adaptive assessment in math, reading and language arts. Students take the diagnostic three times each school year: August, December, and May. Through the Exact Path Diagnostic, we are able to measure students’ skill readiness and growth. For more information about the Exact Path Diagnostic, please read the Exact Path Parent Message.

Drop Off/ Pick Up Routine
Morning Drop-Off
Drop off will begin at 7:45 am. Only staff will enter campus prior to 7:45 am.
The designated entry point is the cafeteria at South Primary Campus.
Drop Off routes (Map Attached Here)
Enter from Sunland Ave. going north or south from Montezuma. Proceed through the turn going east, then proceed to drop students off at the cafeteria door, and exit making a right (south) on Central. No left turns.
Any student arriving after 8:00 must enter through the front office with a parent/guardian signing them in with our receptionist Ms. Mendoza
When dropping off your child at the cafeteria in the morning, a teacher will be there to greet and welcome them. When picking up, please have your child’s name on card stock. WE will be sending home a piece with each student's name on it Monday. Please display it during pick up to make it easier for the staff. Please hold it up so it is clearly visible as you wait in the drive through. I would suggest just putting on your dashboard while you go through so that it can be seen by all. Please remain in your car the entire time in the drive line. Thank you so much for your help with this
