End of Year Reminder for Parents End of Year Reminder for Parents

Device Return:

As per district policy, all students who are leaving the district and this year's 2nd, 5th, and 8th graders are required to return their devices at the end of the school year.


At the completion of this school year, classroom teachers will collect student devices and charging cords and place them in individual plastic bags. Teachers will complete a quick check of the devices for visible damage. A form will be completed with the status of the return and a copy will be given to your student to take home. Please keep the form as proof of your return. Please note, there will be a more thorough inspection by the IT department once all the devices have been collected. If any damage is found outside of the normal wear and tear, a fee may be assessed in Infinite Campus as per district policy.


If your student is attending a summer program or summer school, and they are in the above grades, they will still be required to return the device at the end of the school year, and a different device will be issued at the start of the summer programs.


Below is a copy of the letter being sent home after the collection. (Chromebook and iPad letters)

These devices are due no later than June 11th. In June, fees will be entered into Infinite Campus for missing or damaged equipment. Devices that are not returned will become rendered unusable, and location services will be turned on.

Open Mic Poetry Reading at TR

Ms. Newsham’s 2nd grade class at Tracy transformed into a café for their Open Mic Poetry Reading! Each student read favorite original works to the class and enjoyed light refreshments and conversation with peers about their poems after the readings. Students learned and demonstrated knowledge on various types of poetry, including acrostic, animal alliteration, "What am I?", and more! The class’s favorite to read seemed to be the "What am I?" poems -- where students wrote about something and the audience had to guess what their poem was about. What a fun way to wrap up the poetry unit and celebrate students’ hard work🤩 📖
