The CJUESD monthly board meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 22nd, at 6pm in the Cafeteria.
There are many ways to measure your child's learning. Your child's teacher uses report card grades,
classroom work, teacher observations, and end-of-year statewide test results to get a complete
picture of your child's learning. Each year, students participate in the California Assessment of
Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP). Your child will take the following tests, depending on
their grade level or instructional program:
• Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments for English language arts and math,
required tests in grades 3-8 and 11
• California Science Test (CAST), a required test in grades 5 and 8 and once in high
school
This year, Capay Joint Union Elementary School District will give the summative assessments in
person.
The testing schedule is listed below:
May 20th- May 31st
You are an important part of your child's education. To make sure your child feels comfortable taking
the tests, you can do the following:
• Explain to your child that these tests are used as tools to help them learn, and that they should
not be anxious 'or scared.
• Remind your child that you and their teacher want them to try their very best and are there to
help, every step of the way.
• Explore the practice tests with your child on the CAASPP Online Practice and Training Tests
web page at www.caaspp.org/practice-and-training/index.html so they can become familiar
with the platform and setup of the tests.
You will receive your child's results at or before the beginning of the next school year. The results will
identify where your child is doing well or needs more help, so you can better support their learning at
home and teachers can better support their learning in the classroom.
To learn more about these tests go to the CAASPP Starting Smarter website at
ca.startingsmarter.org, or review the CDE Parent Guides to Understanding web page at
www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/ca/parentguidetounderstand.asp.
lf you have questions, please contact Mr. Rutledge at trutledge@capayschool.org.
Sincerely,
Tyler Rutledge

What an incredible day at Capay! We were absolutely thrilled to have the talented Webster Moore grace our music classroom with his mesmerizing music today. Webster, a multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter hailing from Chico, captivated our students with his extraordinary talent. Not only did he share his musical journey and background, but he also imparted a powerful message about the dedication and perseverance required to nurture one's musical abilities. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Webster for this unforgettable experience! 🎶✨
