Our staff had a wonderful teacher appreciation week. We are so grateful to our PTA volunteers for organizing, volunteering, and making donations. From kind messages to great food to raffle prizes, we could feel the love and support of our community everywhere. Thank you for a truly magnificent week!
Our classroom highlight this week is Ms. Frieders’ 5th and 6th grade classroom. Students created a Padlet to share their peak moments from the week. We hope you enjoy the Room 116 Padlet!
Families, please continue to wear a mask when picking up and dropping off your children. Your cooperation is appreciated.

This spring we will test kindergarten through eighth grade students using the MAP assessment tool. Dooley students will take the MAP assessment next week. The computer-based assessment will be administered to students in-person because we know that the most reliable administration and data point comes when students are tested in-person. The purpose of the assessment is to continue to obtain data points on our students and to continue to plan for instruction that meets the needs of each student.
With the testing being in-person on assigned days/times it will be important for the school to partner with families to help this process be as successful as possible.
Important Details on the Spring MAP Assessment:
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to your child’s teacher for more details.

As a reminder, all families are required to prove that they live within District 54 boundaries every year.
