4 reasons you should read this PARCC update:
- PARCC Results Releases - the NJ Department of Education has released state-level results, district scores, and individual student scores of the PARCC test first given in New Jersey districts last spring.
- PARCC State-Level Results - towards the end of this recent NJ State Board of Education report about PARCC Results: Year One are the state-level results.
- PARCC Student Results: an Overview - an individual student report of PARCC test scores will look quite different than NJASK student results received in previous years. This presentation, created by Andrew Zuckerman, director of Instructional Services, is designed for parents, walks them through a sample PARCC student report, and aims to help interpret the new PARCC report format.
- Individual Student Scores - as of December 15, 2015, plans are for individual student scores to be mailed home by the time schools close for winter break the afternoon of December 23.

Coding with kids...it's not just for an Hour of Code
Looking for something to do with children during the Winter Recess? Coding activities don't have to be reserved for Computer Science and Education Week held at the beginning of December. Use them with children all year long and sneak in problem solving and critical thinking skill development at the same time.
Here are free activities that, except where noted, can be used for 2nd to 6th graders. Once a student becomes advanced in some programs, the activities are suitable for up to 8th grade.

Support the Lawrence Hopewell Trail
The Lawrence Hopewell Trail (LHT) needs your help to complete the remaining 4 miles of the 22-mile trail connecting Lawrence and Hopewell. More than 40,000 friends and neighbors walked or biked on the LHT in 2015, but not many know that it was created by a very small group of unpaid volunteers, not by government organizations. The non-profit Lawrence Hopewell Trail Corporation is the only citizen-led volunteer group to develop a trail project of this scope and complexity anywhere in the country.
