The week of June 1st, after memorial day, all students will take the end of year NWEA-MAPS tests. This will help us see their progress and understand their learning over the course of this challenging year. All 9th-11th HS students will need to plan to come in person on their A or B days that week. We will make a separate plan for Ms. Radilla’s crew. 7-8th grade students will also take NWEA that week as well.
Finals: We will run our normal schedule for both 7-8 and 9-11 the last week of school, June 14-17. Finals will be given during that last week of school. 9-11 finals will be given virtually consistent with our current model of instruction and similar to what we did at the end of semester 1.

Summer is the Perfect Time for Your Teen to do Drivers Ed! (see the attached flyer)
Your choice of driver’s education is an important milestone in your student’s life. Summer break is an excellent time for students 14 ½ and older to start taking classes for a Colorado permit. When you choose the online program, hosted through Lake County Schools, you can help your student become a safe driver for life and support your school at the same time!
Why go through us?
- Our online program increases the confidence and knowledge of your student in a variety of driving situations.
- The program is designed to be equivalent to an in-person classroom experience. Your student will learn all the content of the classroom from the convenience of your own home.
- The curriculum is based on knowledge, not fear! We focus on defensive and safe driving habits to help make your student become a safe driver for life.
- Interactive games and videos make the learning experience fun and engaging.
- Your student can access the online program anytime, anywhere! It works on all devices. All you need is a working Internet connection.
- Everything is self-paced. When life gets busy, your student can pick up the course at any time.
- After you enroll in our online program, we receive a donation to help fund school programs. Not only does your student learn the basics of driving, but you can feel good about supporting your school.
