Virtual Learner Families,
We will be asking all K-12 students to take the i-Ready diagnostic assessment before 10/16. Our elementary building has already begun to test and our secondary building will test the week of October 5th.
We have created two videos to help you support your virtual learner in completing the i-Ready assessment. The 1st video will explain what the i-Ready test is and how we use the data it provides. The 2nd video will walk families through how their student will access the assessment and how you can support your student before and during the test.
Both videos can be accessed at: https://tinyurl.com/clarkeiready
The school Food Pantry will be open for curbside service from 4-5 today.

I-35 FB Spectator Guidelines: Visiting fans will enter through the west gate by the elementary building and will proceed to walk through the playground to the visiting bleachers. Fans who sit in the bleachers will be required to social distance outside of their immediate family and wear masks while in the bleachers. Bleachers will be limited to sitting in areas designated by blue tape to ensure social distancing. Spectators are encouraged to bring a lawn chair as there is a lot of room along the outside of the fence to view the game. Students in 6th grade or lower must be accompanied with an adult at all times. No “pick up” style football games are to be played at any time.
The Fall Team Store orders have arrived. We have tried to separate them by activity. They are in the hallway next to my office in the auditorium area. You may have your child come pick them up when they can. Band orders are in the band room.
