Principal's Message

Dear Shrevewood Families,

It was another great week, and we cannot wait to see all our families this evening at our PTA community picnic starting at 5:30pm. Please remember to wear your masks this evening. This will be a wonderful way for our families to get to know some of our Shrevewood staff members.

This week also marks the 20th anniversary of September 11. Shrevewood ES commemorated the 20th anniversary of September 11 with a moment of silence and connected this historic event in classroom lessons. The classroom lessons focused on gratitude for the first responders and their heroic efforts on that day. We honor all those who lost loved ones and those who served heroically.

We hope to see everyone this evening and enjoy your weekend!

Sincerely,

Joshua DeSmyter, Principal

Katie Vandawalker, Assistant Principal

Fall 2021 iReady Assessment

Starting next week, Shrevewood will begin administering the iReady Universal Screener. The online iReady assessment (also known as the universal screener) provides an initial view of all students’ foundational skills to help teachers identify students who may have challenges in reading or mathematics. This fall, students in grades 1-6 will take the iReady reading and mathematics assessments. More information about the assessment can be found on the FCPS Universal Screener Parent Notification webpage. Please contact your child's teacher with any questions.

Digital Tools Parental Consent

drc

At Shrevewood, we use a variety of digital tools to support meaningful student learning. Some of these tools require parental consent before they can be used.

❤️64% of our school population has already provided consent - THANK YOU! We really want  consent from 100% of our Shrevewood families! 💻

Click here you can find our school’s list of the resources that require parental consent. After reviewing these resources, please complete 🔗 this form 🔗 to indicate whether or not your student is allowed to use the list of digital resources this year. Your child will not be able to use the digital resources until we have received your permission, so the sooner we can get the permission the better!

Please reach out to our School Based Technology Specialist, Kim Paska Negro (kpaska@fcps.edu) or your child's teacher you have questions or concerns. THANK YOU!
