Aloha!
Our Smarter Balanced Assessment Test Security Meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 29th. We will be meeting after the SP101 Training on Google Meet (Nickname: 293Faculty).
In your boxes, you'll find an SBA Training Packet. The contents of the packet contain materials needed for our Test Security Meeting and Test Administration of the SBA and HSA in April. Please keep this packet in a secure location and have this accessible for our training on Monday.
The trainings this week are very important and required-please check for emails from Elizabeth Okamoto about SP101 and the Curriculum Coaches for SBA.
Our cafeteria and meal services are closed this week. Students who eat on campus will be provided meals from Kapolei High School starting about 11:30 am. Meals will be provided to them outside of the cafeteria. Adult supervisors will help facilitate the meal times for this week.
Mahalo to Musical Director Laura Brown and the cast and crew of Frozen. So many hands are involved in this production-this year like no other. Thank you for giving our students this chance to shine as we get through this challenging school year and thank you for sharing this with all of us!
