Attendance Matters!

Every day your child attends school they build more connections, learning more, and have more fun! Thanks Anderson Families for helping our Attendance improve over the past two years. Let's keep it up! Below are triangle graphs comparing the 24/25 and 25/26 school years. We want to "grow the green" and "shrink the red".

Green = students who are absent less than 5% of the school year.
Red = student who are absent more than 10% of the school year.

Join the PTO for a night of family fun 🦊

Anderson Family Directory 2026-2027 (New Every Year)

Anderson School Family Directory 2026-2027

The purpose of this Google Form is to help Anderson School families connect by collecting and organizing contact information that you may want to share with other families. We often receive requests from parents looking to connect with others in their child's class for organizing playdates, planning birthday parties, or sending thank you notes.

Please take a moment to fill out the questions below. You can share as much or as little information as you're comfortable with. The details you provide will be compiled into a view-only spreadsheet that will be accessible to all Anderson School families.

Mr. Jarot will share the "View Only" spreadsheet, organized by Grade Level Teacher Tabs, with all Anderson Families.

You must re-enter your families information each year. If you did it last year, thanks, but you need to do it again. :)

Help our PTO, Help our School!

📣 NEW PTO OPPORTUNITY: Classroom PTO Partner! 📣

We’re excited to introduce a new way for parents to get involved and help strengthen the connection between our PTO and each classroom! 💙

We’re looking for one or more parents from each classroom to serve as a Classroom PTO Partner.

🤝 As a Classroom PTO Partner, you would:

🏫 Attend the monthly PTO meetings — the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM in the LRC

🎤 Serve as a voice for your classroom and share classroom feedback or concerns with the PTO when needed

📣 Share PTO events, volunteer opportunities, fundraisers, and important PTO communications with the parents in your classroom

🤝 Help connect families with opportunities to get involved in our school community

You don’t need to have PTO experience, and more than one parent from a classroom can volunteer! This is simply an opportunity to help keep communication flowing and make sure every classroom has a connection to PTO.

Interested in being your classroom’s PTO Representative? We’d love to have you! 💙

Let’s make this year our most connected PTO yet! 🦊 💙

i-Ready information

Dear Parents/Guardians:

The i-Ready Inform fall SY 2026-27 assessment window has been completed. Please click here for *instructions on how to access your student's results via their i-Ready dashboard.

You may contact your child’s school if a hard copy of the report is needed.

*Please note: The code for accessing reports is only good for the current school year. Once the school year is over the code no longer works, so please print or download your student’s report as soon as possible. The instructions will be updated each year with a new code.

More information about i-Ready is available at https://sites.google.com/d303.org/i-readyresources/home

i-Ready Inform assessments are computer-based assessments that adjust to each child’s mathematics and reading ability levels. Based on the results of the Inform assessments, students are provided with practice lessons at their instructional level. These lessons can be found in the MyPath section of i-Ready.

The assessment data is to help understand where your child is in relation to grade level standards, provide for practice and assignments at your child’s academic level, and monitor academic growth this school year. If you have questions regarding your child’s scores, please feel free to contact your child’s teacher or building principal.

You are also welcome to contact me at 331.228.4911 or david.chiszar@d303.org.

Sincerely, David Chiszar

Executive Director of Assessment and Accountability
