Parent-Family Survey!
The Annual Thomas Jefferson Parent Survey conducted to collect information from parents about school effectiveness and parent satisfaction. Please complete one survey per child attending Thomas Jefferson. This helps us address grade level concerns or recognize grade level strengths. Please respond to each statement based on your overall experience with our school. A composite of the surveys will be shared with the School Site Council, but individual responses will be kept confidential.
In preparation for this survey, we encourage you to ask your children about their experiences at school.

CASSPP UPDATE - Testing Begins April 26, 2018
CAASPP Testing April 26- May 25
Thomas Jefferson students in grades 3-5 will be taking the statewide achievement test (CAASPP)during the month of May. This test is given each year to gather data on the growth and achievement of our students in Language Arts, Math, and Science in grade 5. It is also a great opportunity to discover areas of strength and growth in our instructional practices school-wide. This year, all students will be testing in the morning and we will have grade levels testing on a staggered schedule throughout the month. Thank you for making sure your child is at school and on time each day and for encouraging them to do their best and show what they know! Most students will finish the testing in a week or less.
For more information, please read the letter here from our district office sent out earlier this year. We have much to celebrate and know each student will do their best!
