Changes Ahead for Education: New Standards & Tests “A newlywed is making a roast and proceeds to cut it in half before placing it in the pot.

Her husband asks, ‘Why?’ She states James Kistner ‘It’s what Governing Board Member my mother always did.’ They call her mother to ask and she answers, ‘It’s what my mother always did.’ So they call grandma and ask her why she always cut her roast in half. She chuckles and says ‘Because my pot was too small.’” So, for gen-

erations, roasts were being cut, not because it added any value to the process, but because the �irst pot in the family was too small.

Change is hard.

Why? Maybe because we are creatures of habit and we enjoy the comfort of knowing what is coming, what is going to happen, how we are going to start the day tomorrow.

When I think about education, our country and life, it may be that sometimes we need change simply because we never know how good it might be on the other side. Maybe our lives will be easier,

EVERY STUDENT, EVERY DAY, PREPARED TO SHAPE TOMORROW

maybe our children will be wiser and more successful, maybe we can all work together civilly.

Right now we are in what feels like a perpetual state of change: rigorous new state standards, a new unnamed assessment, new curriculum and an election cycle sure to bring new faces.

No matter your propensity towards accepting change, I encourage you to take a new perspective this school year. Embrace the newness of what is coming. You never know what you might discover about yourself and others.

ParentVUE Available to Access Child’s Records

Parents or legal guardians can now access their students’s records with the new informa�on system, ParentVUE. To obtain an activation code at your child’s school, you will need to show your iden�fica�on. The ac�va�on code is good for 30 days. If you do not log in within 30 days, you will need to obtain a new code from the school.

If you have mul�ple students a�ending more than one school, obtain an activation code at either child’s school. One access code is all you will need to view all of your children’s informa�on with ParentVUE. A link to ParentVUE is available at www.peoriaud.k12.az.us under the Parents tab. A user guide and a short video describing ParentVUE is accessible there. You can also connect to ParentVUE from our free mobile app available for Apple and Android devices.

A�end a Parent/Teacher Conference: Your Child’s Success is Our Common Goal On Thursday, Oct. 16 and Friday, Oct. 17, all elementary schools will dismiss students early for Parent-Teacher Conferences. Elementary schools that start at 8 a.m. will dismiss at 10 a.m.; elementary schools that start at 8:40 a.m. will dismiss at 10:40 a.m.

By accepting the invitation to attend a conference, you and your child’s teacher can develop a vital partnership

— one that is fundamentally important to reach a common goal — that your

child has the best education possible for future successes.

Grandparents Invited to Lunch: Special Day Observed throughout District The �irst National Grandparents Day was observed in 1978 and every year since, falls on the �irst Sunday after Labor Day. Peoria Uni�ied, however, celebrates Grandparents Day the Friday before by

Students, Parents Turn Out for College & Career Ready Event at Peoria High Peoria Uni�ied’s Career and Technical Education (CTE) Department held a a college and career ready event Sept. 6 at Peoria High School. The “Chart Your Pathways to Success” event drew hundreds of elementary school students from across the district and their parents eager to explore the wide variety of CTE courses available to them in high school.

One of the first stops on the tour was a career center where Debbie Owen, Career Center Specialist at Ironwood High, encouraged students to visit their high school Career Center for scholarship and financial aid informa�on.

Non-discrimina�on Statement: The Peoria Unified School District does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, na�onal origin, sex, age or disability.

Declaración de Non Discriminación: El Peoria Unified School District no discrimina a raza, color, nacionalidad, género, edad, o habilidad diferenciada.

The tours were guided by CTE students and went through classrooms, labs and shops, providing hands-on experiences for interested students. High school advisors and teachers from all district high schools answered student and parent questions.

Parents learned that most CTE programs have dual enrollment, which means a student earns

high school and college credits simultaneously at a fraction of the cost of college tuition.

Peoria Uni�ied’s CTE program is the largest of its kind in the state offering 23 programs including: automotive technology, culinary arts, construction trades, fashion design, �ire science, computer programming, media production, nursing, sports medicine and more.

CTE programs allow students to explore and experience careers while in high school, earn college credits, and apply skills in relevant, real-world settings.

Welding is a CTE course offered at Peoria High School.

How is this test different than the AIMS test?

Arizona’s Instrument to Measure Standards tested the old standards. Spring 2014 was the last AIMS to be administered for reading, writing and math.

The Science Standards did not change, so students in 4, 8 and high school will still take the AIMS Science test.

High school students graduating after Dec. 31, 2016, will no longer be required to pass the AIMS test to graduate high school. Assessment requirements for graduation have yet to be announced.

Who will take this new test?

Public school students in grades three- through-high school will take the new test.

Students in grades threethrough-eight will take an assessment in English language arts and math at their grade level.

Students taking high school level English and math will take end-of-course assessments that will test their pro�iciency in these subjects.

When will the test be given?

Students will take the new statewide test Spring, 2015.

To re a d m o re a b o u t the new standards, visit www.azed.gov/azccrs/.
