Week of April 23-27

Updates from our week at Diamond Creek 
This week we kicked off another Breakfast & Books Club for our 4th and 5th grade students. We are reading Crenshaw together and enjoying some breakfast and good conversation.  Many students are celebrating their reading goals and 40 book challenges around the building as they are surpassing their beginning of year reading goals!  Hats off to all of our AMAZING READERS!!

Our 5th grade students are learning how to Bucket Drum during their music time and hopefully will have some time to perform for some of our students. I was able to listen on Friday and it was so fun to watch! They've got some great moves and music started!

BINGO NIGHT - TOMORROW!!
Thank you to all of our families who have purchased BINGO tickets for our Spring Fundraiser tomorrow night at Elks Lodge.  A huge thank you to all of our families who have also bought some items on our Silent Auction or donated items to be sold.  We appreciate all of your time and support! Our PTC works very hard to make this event happen and be beneficial for our students and our community!  Thank you to all of those volunteers who are helping this event be a success!

CAASPP Testing
The CAASPP Testing window for our 3rd through 5th grade students will be open from April 16th through May 25th.  Each classroom teacher has an individual schedule of when their students will be testing in Math and Reading. Our 5th grade students also have a Science portion of the test. This is our California State Test that allows us to measure growth and provide instruction for areas that are not being met as well.  Please make sure your child has a good, healthy breakfast and is getting lots of sleep throughout these testing days.  Sleep and proper nutrition are very helpful in allowing our students to show their best ability on these assessments.
