Dear Families,
In February, some of our Sundragons will be taking the AZELLA test (Arizona English Language Learner Assessment). This assessment helps us understand how your child is growing in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in English.
For our Sundragons, the AZELLA is very child-friendly and feels much like normal classroom activities—talking, listening, and showing what they know. The best way to support your child is to make sure they get a good night’s sleep, eat breakfast, and come to school ready to do their best 😊
We ask that you please avoid scheduling any appointments during testing dates to ensure your child is able to test with their class. Our students always perform better when they test alongside their assigned teacher. Thank you for your continued support!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact your child's teacher 💬✨

Estimadas familias:
En febrero, algunos de nuestros Sundragons realizarán la prueba AZELLA (Evaluación del Aprendizaje del Idioma Inglés de Arizona). Esta evaluación nos ayuda a comprender el progreso de su hijo/a en comprensión auditiva, expresión oral, lectura y escritura en inglés.
Para nuestros Sundragons, la prueba AZELLA es muy amigable y se parece mucho a las actividades normales del salon: hablar, escuchar y demostrar lo que saben. La mejor manera de apoyar a su hijo/a es asegurarse de que duerma bien, desayune y venga a la escuela listo/a para dar lo mejor de sí mismo/a 😊
Les pedimos que eviten programar citas durante las fechas de los exámenes para garantizar que su hijo/a pueda realizar las pruebas con su clase. Nuestros alumnos obtienen mejores resultados cuando realizan los exámenes junto con su profesor habitual.¡Gracias por su continuo apoyo!
Si tienen alguna pregunta, no duden en comunicarse con el maestro/a de su hijo/a 💬✨
