PARCC Test

Throughout the state of Illinois students in grades 3 through 11 are participating in a pilot of the PARCC assessments which will be implemented in the 2014-15 school year.  At Westwood, students in Mrs. Sauber's and Mrs.Wagner's classes have been selected to participate in a pilot of the PARCC English Language Arts assessment. These students will work with their teachers for 3 testing sessions that week after spring break. Each session will last between 1-2 hours. As a district we will gather information about the assessment content and protocols for administering the test.

Remember the Titans

Our 5th graders will have the opportunity to watch Remember the Titans this week while our 4th graders take 2 additional ISAT tests.  They will be discussing how this movie applies to their lives today, leadership, and their role as leaders in the Westwood community between now and the end of the year.  This movie is rated PG.  A letter went home Friday describing its rating in more detail.  If you do NOT wish for your child to view this movie, please write me a note or send me an e-mail before Wednesday.  Thank you!
