August/September, 2019

Dear Parents/Guardians:

I’d like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the 2019-2020 school year. Our staff is looking forward to working with you and your children. We at Moran look forward to meeting and serving our new families as well as those returning for another year.

A new full time teacher to Moran is Michaella Schick, 4th grade. Mrs. Logan will be teaching first grade this year.

Riding the bus to and from school is extremely safe and helps reduce traffic congestion on Beech Road. If your children do not currently ride one of our buses please consider it. You’ll save money and children will be transported safely and efficiently.

Parents have received individual student ILEARN data but the D.O.E. has not released school wide data at this time. Once the data arrives our staff will immediately begin the process of building a plan of success for all our students. The staff at Moran Elementary School is dedicated to providing the best educational experience possible for your child. We are very fortunate to have such a dedicated and experienced staff working with your children.  We know that working together, between home and school, we can be successful. At Moran we want every child to be successful. As the new school year approaches I hope you will have the opportunity to visit and volunteer in your school. Your participation at Moran sends the message that learning is important. We hope you will have the opportunity to send that message often. Again, the Moran Staff and I look forward to serving you and your children in the coming year. I hope that your summer break has been an enjoyable one. See you soon.

                                                                        Sincerely,

                                                                        Frank Anglin, Ed.S.

WNIT has introduced a new service which will help prepare your future students for kindergarten. A new 24/7 PBS Kids Channel offers a full time education alternative to kids’ channels which exist to sell “stuff” to children. This new channel is available from a home antenna at 34.3 and will be available on most cable systems. In addition to the television broadcast, the PBS Kids Channel on WNIT will also be fully live-streamed with related on-line games to enhance and extend the learning experience. Here are the links to two videos promoting the new channel: https://youtu.be/kkRYEj0dRJ0 andhttps://youtu.be/IGMQtt2eyoU.

Students in grades 3 – 8 participated in the ILEARN assessments earlier this spring. Since ILEARN is a new test, the results with proficiency levels and final scores will not be available for schools until August 15. 

In accordance with Indiana Code 20-32-5.1-12(d), parents and schools have an opportunity to request a rescore for any open-ended item(s) to which students responded on the ILEARN assessment.

Requesting a rescore is optional and is not a requirement for scoring your student’s test.

The P-H-M ILEARN Rescore Request window will be open from Monday, July 15 – Friday, July 26. Parents or guardians who wish to view students’ response images and scoring rubrics must complete P-H-M’s online form to schedule an appointment at the Educational Services Center for the window of dates listed above. Please click here if you wish to make an appointment. The State is not providing a separate online portal this year for parents to access this information.

If you wish to make an appointment, please note during the appointment, the parent or guardian will ONLY be able to view the following: 

• an image of your student’s response to each open-ended item
• a sample of student responses for each score point
• the scoring rubric to help decide whether to request a rescore for that item

Important Information about the rescore process:

• The rescore request, if desired, will be submitted by P-H-M on behalf of the parent or guardian
• Requesting a rescore may result in an increased or decreased score
• A rescore request cannot be reversed
• A rescore request can only be submitted once

Again, requesting a rescore is optional and is not a requirement for scoring your student’s test.

Parents/Guardians who wish to view students’ ILEARN response images and scoring rubrics, must click here to make an appointment for Monday, July 15 – Friday, July 26.
