There is a special gift in the mailboxes of all the people who celebrate their birthdays in
Baby or Childhood Picture
We are getting ready for Staff Appreciation Week! We value the staff at Keystone and cannot wait to celebrate you! Our theme this year is “Growing and Succ-seeding Together as a Team!” Isn’t this a perfect theme reflecting on this school year!?
We are using plants and flowers as visual representations of our theme. In preparation, we need you provide us with one baby or childhood picture by Wednesday, April 20.We cannot wait for you to see all the surprises that we have planned for May 2-6. Get ready!
Lexia and Dreambox Requirements
As we discussed in our January 11th staff meeting, students are NOT required to do Lexia nor Dreambox every day during workshop. The maximum number of days that we require per digital tool is 2-3 times a week (K-5) and 90 minutes a week (middle school). See the tables below for your specific grade level requirements.

Students may do other things
during their independent workshop time. As discussed in that meeting, we
strongly encourage providing students an opportunity to read a “Just Right”
book during ELA workshop. Please reach out to your dean if you need suggestions
on other independent activities.
Progress Reports
Parents
will be viewing their child’s progress report on the Parent Portal Friday,
April 29. As a part of our Green School initiative, we aren’t printing progress
reports. Please make sure that you have a true representation of their child’s
academic progress by having enough grades entered.
