A NOTE FROM OUR SUPERINTENDENT

Richard StokesI learned from a wise man once that in many languages the month January is named after the Roman god Janus, who often was depicted with two faces—one looking back on the past, one looking forward to the future. Reflecting on 2020 often causes feelings of sadness, pain over terrible losses, and deep frustration over unwanted changes in our lives. But it also invites a spirit of hope and gratitude for the many blessings we received, for the richness of past experiences, and for the brightness shining on our future.

Janus Greek GodIn these coming days, weeks, and months, as stretching as they may be, please be reminded that with every new day, a new dawn comes. And with every new day comes a new start. As we conclude our second quarter and begin the second half our school year, we are pleased to welcome all Pre-K through sixth graders back to in-person, on-campus instruction, four days a week, Tuesdays through Fridays. It has been our desire and duty to find the methods and systems that have best addressed the academic needs of our students and families while living within the Pandemic. As governmental directions and social conditions change, our educational operations have also reflected these changes. We will continue to use the guidance and best practices suggested by national and state leaders in an effort to keep our students and staff safe. But we also know the best way to educate and meet the delicate social and emotional needs of our community’s school-age students is to provide them with caring teachers and in-person educational opportunities. 

As we press forward, we have plenty to celebrate and there is much to accomplish in the coming weeks and months. I want to thank all of you for your service and commitment to our students and their families.  I appreciate all that you do and am grateful to work alongside of each of you as we help to prepare our next generation of leaders.

Sincerely,
Richard Stokes
Superintendent, Carson City School District

SCHOOL DISTRICT EMPLOYEES GET FIRST DOSES OF COVID-19 VACCINATION

TurnersSchool employees within the Carson City School District began receiving COVID-19 vaccinations Jan. 8. Several locations located around the Quad county region have been designated, and employees are able to choose from any location in the Quad County region. 

“We believe this will have a positive impact on reopening schools by minimizing the health risks to school employees and the community they serve,” Carson City School District Risk Manager Ann Cyr said. “The health department notified me on January 4 that they were opening up Tier 2 and were ready to begin vaccinating educators and school staff. We have been working closely with them to provide access to electronic scheduling for our employees.” 

First dose of COVID vaccineNow that employees will have an opportunity to receive the vaccine, the district has shifted its testing strategy to focus on students and staff who become symptomatic during the school day and their close contacts. Using the Abbott BinaxNOW rapid test kits provided by the state, school nurses will work to more quickly identify school cases and control spread in the school community.     


STATE COVID-19 SCHOOL DASHBOARD NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

School DashboardThe Carson City School District continues to monitor data concerning the current COVID-19 conditions in the Quad County area and refine plans for reopening. A COVID-19 School Dashboard is now available at the State of Nevada Department of Health & Human Services Office of Analytics website. 

The school district continues to work in close cooperation with a dedicated school investigator at the health department to identify active cases and close contacts. This data is reported to the Office of Analytics. Investigations are now supported by Abbott BinaxNOW Rapid test kits being administered in school health offices. The tests may be performed on students and staff who become symptomatic during the school day and their close contacts. Tests are only administered on student and staff who have symptoms or are identified as close contacts of a school related case. For information on asymptomatic testing, please visit the health department’s website for the current calendar of testing sites.        

3RD THROUGH 6TH GRADERS RETURN TO IN-PERSON LEARNING 4 DAYS A WEEK

Return to SchoolBeginning Tuesday, January 19, all third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade students may begin attending their zoned school for in-person, on-campus instruction, four days a week, Tuesdays through Fridays. The Carson City School District School Board of Trustees voted unanimously to offer the modified instruction model at a special school board meeting Thursday, Dec. 17, 2020. The district previously announced a return to 4-days-per-week, in-person learning for Pre-K to second grade students Oct. 20, 2020. The wearing of face masks and maintaining social distancing between students is still expected.

For all students (at all grade levels) throughout the Carson City School District, Mondays will remain remote learning days. Students, both full-remote and in-seat, will check in with their homeroom teachers electronically and work independently throughout the school day. Any students and families who have elected full-remote instruction may continue to remain in the remote learning instruction model if they choose. 

Students in grades seventh through twelfth will remain in their assigned cohort groups and will continue to receive instruction via the hybrid-blended learning model. We would also encourage all bus families who are willing and able to please transport their child to and from school to help free up space on buses. For more information on this announcement, please visit our website at carsoncityschools.com or contact your school. Thanks for your ongoing support of our schools.

SCHOOLS FOUNDATION VIDEO PROVIDES INFO, SEEKS CONTRIBUTIONS

Foundation VideoWith the start of the new semester, the Carson City Schools FOUNDATION (CCSF) is rolling out a new video with more detailed information about how it uses the money donated to the organization and how contributions are made. To view the video, please click here

School District employees can support the CCSF with an ongoing contribution via Payroll Deduction. Individuals and organizations are also able to make a one-time donation using a credit card. To make a one-time donation, or for more information, please visit ccschoolsfoundation.org/campaigns/donations/.

District employees interested in making a payroll donation should obtain a Payroll Deduction Form from their site office manager. Ending the deduction can be done at any time by contacting the Carson City School District Payroll Department. If every district employee contributed just $1 per pay period, the district could raise more than $23,000 per year. 

Each semester, the Foundation gives back to educators and students alike. This last semester, the foundation awarded $200 mini-grants as well as up to $2,000 grants for a department, school or grade-level project(s).

TESTING SEASON IS UPON US

TestSpring is the beginning of the testing season for elementary, middle and high school students. There are state and national tests (SBAC/ACT) for students in grades 3-12. District assessments (MAP) for grades K-8 begin now and continue through the end of the school year and many of these tests are mandated by legislation. 

All 11th grade students (juniors) are required (in order to graduate) to take the ACT Tuesday, February 23. Please note, students will not have access to their cell phones during the ACT. Also, CHS does not provide calculators, so students will need to bring their own (review Calculator Policy here). Every student has been notified of their testing room assignment and should arrive at the school by 7:30 a.m.  All 9th, 10th and 12th grade students do not attend school that day (Feb. 23). If students have questions about testing room assignments, they should go to the main office for assistance. 

TIPS AND HOW TO PREPARE FOR TESTS

There’s no secret formula when it comes to passing a standardized test. It’s important to remember that anxiety may hinder performance for the test taker, so take a deep breath and read through a few practical tips to help students prepare for standardized assessments. And please note, don’t schedule doctor’s appointments before, after or during tests. As soon as a student begins taking a test, if they need to leave for an appointment, they will likely not be able to reschedule or finish the exam.

  1. Test CrammingTake practice tests. The Nevada Department of Education website offers practice tests, which can help prepare children with understanding the test expectations, including the content and mechanics. SBAC offers good examples of practice tests. If the test format seems familiar on test day, kids are more likely to feel comfortable and know what to do.
  2. Promote a positive attitude. Parents should be positive about learning and testing. Kids need to take tests seriously and be strategic, but also feel confident and mentally prepared. Parents can help children feel prepared for the test by encouraging them to visualize success on test day. In other words, ask them to close their eyes and imagine themselves taking the test and feeling great about it.
  3. Discuss what to do if you finish early. It’s important to discuss that this is a good opportunity to double check and verify their answers for accuracy. Parents can coach them to review certain questions that were hard and use the process of elimination to rule out some of the answer choices.
  4. Eat well, exercise and rest. In the weeks leading up to the test, it is important for students to have adequate sleep (eight hours is recommended), eat balanced meals, drink plenty of water, and get exercise. Foods high in protein, and water help to stimulate the brain. Exercise, such as stretching and walking, helps to supply the brain with oxygen. Eating a healthy breakfast before school, particularly on the day of the test, gives the body the fuel it needs to maintain long periods of concentration.
  5. Plan enjoyable and relaxing activities. Trying to squeeze a little more preparation in immediately before the test is not advised because it can lead to feeling overwhelmed. Studying the day before or day of the test leads to increased anxiety and should be avoided. Instead, plan enjoyable activities to feel relaxed and ready.

HELP WANTED! WE HAVE VACANCIES.

Now HiringThe global pandemic has proven challenging to businesses and organizations across the state, country and world. Many local school districts cannot find people to fill open positions including transportation, custodial, nutrition, nursing, paraprofessionals and crossing guards. Many are struggling to even maintain enough substitute teachers.

With the state’s new school funding mechanism projecting flat or decreased funding in Nevada for the next several years, many districts are “belt-tightening.” However, there are necessary operational positions that still need to be filled. The Carson City School District currently has open positions for:

  • Special Education Teachers
  • K-12 Teachers
  • Custodians
  • Bus Drivers
  • Para-Professionals
  • Substitute Teachers
  • Nutrition Workers
  • Substitute Custodians
  • School Nurses
  • Substitute Nurses
  • Substitute Special Education Paras
  • Substitute ESL Paraprofessionals
  • Crossing Guards
The Carson City School District said one reason for the lack of candidates is due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused hardships on families, where working from home has forced adjustments on career assignments as well as the challenges of remote learning where students are home more often. For those who are interested in applying, contact Human Resources, 775-283-2130, or visit carsoncityschools.com.
