Spring iReady Diagnostic - Monday, May 17th & May 24th:
On Monday, May 17th and May 24th our students will be taking the Spring iReady Diagnostic. This is the third and final time we take the diagnostic this year. The diagnostic is given to students in math and reading to help us determine students strengths and needs, placement, and growth throughout the year. For more information about iReady testing at home, please click here. Both Mondays students will report to fourth period at the normal time of 9:30am. Instead of moving on to 5th and 6th period, they will stay in 4th period for support until 10:55am and then be released to lunch and independent learning for the day. If they are not finished with the diagnostic during the morning, it should be the priority for independent learning that afternoon. They may take breaks as needed. Other Helpful Information:

Attention Families With 8th Grade Students: On Tuesday, May 11th at 10:45am, there will be a mandatory live google meet for our 8th grade students to introduce career cruising. Career cruising is a college and career exploration tool for student use. The first lessons begin at the 8th grade level as students start working on their High School and Beyond Plan (a HS graduation requirement). Please have your student join the meet on Tuesday, May 11th at 10:45am. Parents should feel free to join the meet as well if they want to support their student in this process. See flyer for details. The meet link to join is: https://meet.google.com/sty-gxjc-ips A Message from the Cascade Middle School Health Room: Ensuring a student’s vision and hearing is not impaired is essential to continued success in learning, both in person and virtually. COVID-19 impacted the school nurse's ability to screen your child’s vision and hearing at school as routinely done. The Cascade Health Room will be working to screen hybrid students for vision (seventh grade only) using the SPOT Photo Screener, focusing on those at greater risk of vision problems. Hearing screening will be completed on a referral basis and only if screening can be conducted safely. If your child is participating in online education or you have concerns regarding your child’s vision, we encourage you to make an appointment with a licensed vision care professional such as an ophthalmologist or optician. For hearing concerns, you should contact your child’s primary care provider. Included is an attachment for your reference for possible signs of vision problems or concerns for your child. Some signs of hearing loss in school-age children are as follows: · Does not follow simple commands, such as “get your shoes,” or understand simple directions · Is easily frustrated or experiences communication breakdowns · Is falling behind with speech and communication skills · Cannot understand what you are saying unless they are looking directly at you · Cannot identify where sounds are coming from · Is exhausted at the end of school from concentrating to understand speech · Shows signs of behavioral problems or social difficulties · Experience's problems keeping up at school or grades slipping Summer School Information:
