Message from the Leadership Team

SCVi will be closed on Monday, Jan. 15, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday.

End of Semester Jan. 30

Our semester ends on Jan. 30. If you have any questions or concerns about how your learner is doing, please be sure to contact your facilitator. They are your learner’s first point of contact, and can best assist with helping your child be successful. 

MAP Assessments

During the month of January, learners will take MAP assessments for the second time this year. The MAP measures an individual learner’s academic level and growth — and uses the resulting data to better inform facilitators about specific areas to address. They also help us better understand overall class needs. The aim of the MAP is to help your learners now, while we are currently in session. With all of this in mind, it’s important for learners to try their best on these assessments. Facilitators have such conversations with learners prior to their testing window. We’d also ask for your help in conveying the message on the importance to give one’s best effort while taking the MAP assessments.

 Each grade level has been assigned a week to take these assessments. They are as follows:

  • Jan. 12-16 – Middle School Team
  • Jan. 22-26 – Team 2/3
  • Jan. 29-February 2 – Team K/1
  • Jan. 30 and Feb. 1 – Upper School with makeups on Feb. 2
    • Please note on these days, Upper School will have a modified schedule.

#US4ADay and Upper School Information Night

On Thursday, Jan. 18, our 8th graders will be participating in #US4ADAY. During this time they will experience our Upper School as learners. They will attend academic classes, design tech classes (SCVi style electives,) advisory classes, and meet with a panel of seniors discussing the college application process. On that evening from 6:30 to 8:30, please join us for Upper School Information Night. This is also open to all of our families who want to know more about our upper school. We will be highlighting the following:  academics, college and career information, IB Program information, clubs, advisory, Ambassador Council and sports. We look forward to this annual event. Please join #US4ADAY.
