BATEMAN WEBSITE   |  TRADUCIR ESTA PAGINA  |   TEACHER WEBSITES   |  CONTACT US

Dear Bateman Families and Friends,


Happy 2023! We are excited for all that the new year brings to our community: continuing to re-build traditions, celebrating the ongoing accomplishments of our students, and setting new goals!

Today, we had the great privilege of recognizing all of our Quarter 2 Core Values Champions! Please help us congratulate our students who have continuously chosen to Be Inclusive!
 
    

Just as students are setting new academic goals based on their growth thus far, we encourage all families to set a goal to arrive on time for school. Instruction begins at 8:15am each day. School doors are open for all to enter at 8:05am to ensure students have time to transition into their classroom seamlessly. The beginning of the day is critical for all students to check in with their friends and teacher, as well as to set the tone for their learning. We hope to see all students in the building next week by 8:15am! 

Again, a very Happy 2023 to all! We know this year will be filled with even more momentous celebrations and memories together in our wonderful community!

Warm regards,

Ms. Davos & Ms. Kloepper

ACCESS Testing
Window Now Open
 
Each year, students in English learner programs take the ACCESS for ELLs language proficiency test. The test measures academic English language proficiency for students learning English in our school and throughout our state.
 
Teachers in our school use this information to help them make decisions about instruction for your child. Teachers also use these test scores to monitor the progress your child makes toward English proficiency. 
 
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Argueta.

Todos los años, los estudiantes inscritos en programas de aprendizaje de inglés reciben el examen de dominio del lenguaje—conocido como ACCESS for ELLs. El examen mide el desempeño lingüístico académico del idioma inglés de los estudiantes que son parte de esta población en nuestra escuela y en todo el estado.
 
En nuestra escuela, los maestros usan esta información para asesorarse y tomar decisiones sobre la instrucción de su hijo/a. Los maestros también usan las calificaciones del examen para monitorear el progreso de su hijo/a en el dominio del inglés.
