Dear BCE Families,
Thank You! ~ What a wonderful Back to School Night! Thank you for coming out and supporting your students. The connection and communication that happens between home and school is so important to your student's success. The teachers spent many hours putting together their presentations and materials for you and I know they appreciated seeing you here on Wednesday. We are looking forward to continuing our important work together and as a school community supporting the great students of BCE. THANK YOU!
Great Evening! ~ It was fantastic to see so many of you at the first Parent Club meeting of the year last night! We have the most amazing Parent Club here at BCE and I love that there are such a variety of ways for parents to be involved. Our Parent Club provides so much for our school (field trips, school supplies, assemblies, technology, umbrellas for extra shade, etc.). Thank you for all you do and for all the support you provide the students of BCE.
CAASP Test Results ~ Last Wednesday the State Superintendent of Public Instruction released results from the 2014-2015 school year California Assessment Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) test.
The public has access to the 2014-2015 CAASPP Reports on the California Department of Education CAASPP Reporting website at http://caaspp.cde.ca.gov/. The website will display the statewide, county, district and school level CAASPP reports for the spring 2015.
Individual Student Reports will be mailed to you from the San Lorenzo Valley District Office when we receive them in the next couple of weeks.
Attached, please find a letter from our Assistant Superintendent, Debbie Bodenheimer, with additional information regarding the CAASP results.

Did you know???
Thank you so much for getting your students to school, and on time, every day! There is a high correlation between student achievement and attendance. Last year almost 20% of our students were absent for ten or more days and approximately 35% of our students were tardy ten or more days. Additionally, we have many students who lose important instructional time when they leave school early. As you can see that adds up to a lot of missed instructional time. Good attendance is important for your student's success. Thank you for supporting them!
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
The BCE Way: BE RESPECTFUL, BE SAFE, BE RESPONSIBLE
