Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) - Beginning this Spring, all Iowa 3rd-11th grade students will begin taking the Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) tests. These tests will replace the Iowa Assessments and will take place during the week of April 15th. In addition, these will be taken digitally using our Chromebooks. We will begin working with our students using practice tests to help them become familiar with both the format of the tests and types of questions they will be answering. These practice tests are available for use by our families as well! If you have questions, please let us know!


Lincoln Parents, would you be willing to take a survey to help give information to Lincoln on our Leader In Me work? Thank you for completing this to help us!


7th Grade Parent Open House - All future Holmes 7th graders are invited to attend open house on Tuesday, April 9, 2019 from 6:00 - 7:00 PM in the Holmes new gymnasium.  Please enter through the Activities Entrance (south side of Holmes). There will be a short presentation in the new gym by Holmes staff members and  student council leaders. Following the presentation students will be able to travel the building and meet teachers. See you there!


Let’s Talk Mental Health: A Community Conversation is a free opportunity on Monday, April 1st from 5:30-8:00 at Cedar Falls High School. In addition, would you have interest in attending a free 6 week workshop for family members and caregivers of children and adolescents with mental health conditions? Please see this attachment.
