Dear Poplar Tree Families,

We hope this message finds you well. As we wrap up our first week of school, we wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for the continued support of our families, staff, and students! It has been a pleasure to see our school community settling into their routines and embracing the new school year.

We have loved the positive energy that has filled our hallways this week. Our teachers have been working tirelessly to create engaging and supportive learning environments. Thank you for entrusting your children to us. We are committed to providing them with a safe and nurturing environment.

We encourage you to stay connected with the school through our website and on Facebook and Instagram for updates on school events and activities.

As always, please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns!

Sue Andujar, Principal

Testing Updates

 

iReady Assessments

Students in Grades 4-6 will be taking the iReady Reading assessments and students in Grades 1-6 will be taking the iReady Math assessments in the coming weeks. The purpose of iReady assessments is to identify students who may have gaps in foundational literacy and mathematics skills. iReady tests are also used to measure student progress in reading and mathematics skills. 

Additional information can be found at the iReady Universal Screener webpage (https://www.fcps.edu/us). If you have further questions about these assessments, please contact your student’s teacher or one of our school test coordinators Amy Alley, avalley@fcps.edu or Leslie Leisey, lfleisey@fcps.edu.
