This is my last Willow Grove Weekly Update, and I want to take this opportunity to tell you that it has been an incredible honor and priviledge to serve as your principal for the last ten years.  How fortunate and blessed I was to be able to work with and support such wonderful students, parents, and staff over the years.  Thank you so much for all of your well wishes for my retirement.  I truly appreciate it.  I will always cherish my time as your principal and will certainly miss all of you. 

I am very excited for your new principal, Mrs. Lynn!  She will love being your principal, and I know you will welcome her with open arms!  It is going to be a wonderful 2023-2024 school year!!

2022-2023 Welcome Letter from Principal Huff

  Preliminary 2022 California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)

Preliminary 2022 California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) results are available for our individual students and our school.  Test scores are recorded as Standards Exceeded, Standards Met, Standards Nearly Met, and Standards Not Met.
 
In English language arts, an overall average of 79% of our Willow Grove 3 – 5 grade students met or exceeded standards on the 2022 CAASPP.
In mathematics, an overall average of 79% of our Willow Grove 3 – 5 grade students met or exceeded standards on the 2022 CAASPP.
 
CAASPP was administered to students in grades 3-8 and grade 11 during the Spring of 2022. If your child took the CAASPP, you can access their individual results through ParentVUE. Please keep in mind that these scores are only one measure of an individual student’s learning. Data from these assessments is used as part of a broader picture of student achievement. Teachers use these results in conjunction with site and classroom assessments and observations to help tailor instruction throughout the school year.
 
This was the first statewide test given to California students since 2019. Following the pandemic, the 2022 test was significantly revised by the California Department of Education (CDE), providing a new baseline for school districts and sites to measure progress moving forward. Due to the significant changes in the test, districts and sites are unable to make direct comparisons with previous years’ results. However, consistent strong results are indicative of system-wide collaboration by parents, teachers, and school staff to facilitate student success. We are proud of our students and know their accomplishments are reflected in a variety of ways. CAASPP results are one measure of progress and should be reviewed alongside other learning information as well.
