TRANSCRIPT
December 2, 2016
Dear Parents and/or Guardians, Earlier this year many families spent time with our teachers setting student-learning goals for the 2016 – 2017 school year. In February, we will take the time to look at our students’ progression toward those goals. Goal setting and achievement data are crucial to long-term student growth. The same can be said about schools. Developing school goals and analyzing achievement data are important steps to take each and every year, and vital in the long-term success of a school. At Prairieview, we spend an entire year looking at and developing school improvement goals. We use national and local assessments as well as best practices to develop our goals. We then design our professional development around those goals to best meet the needs of all students. Our school improvement plan is accessible on our school website and is updated often.
Our school’s achievement data is shared many different ways throughout the year. During our winter conference many of our local assessments will be shared with you to highlight student growth. As for the national assessments, the Illinois Interactive Report Card is a wonderful tool for all parents to see how local schools are performing from year to year. You can access our school’s report card at http://illinoisreportcard.com/. Type in the name of our school and much of our data will be available to you.
A new element of the interactive report card is the 5Essentials Survey. This survey is given out every other year to community members and staff, with the most recent survey available to be taken now. This data goes beyond annual testing and takes a look at how the staff and community feel about the school. I encourage you take the survey at http://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/ and share your thoughts about our school.
Finally, the interactive report card will show you the “fast facts” about our school. These facts are unique to every school and highlight the dynamics that comprise our school and student-population. As a result of some of these dynamics, our school has recently become a Title 1 targeted school. This qualifies us to receive a portion of our district’s Title 1 funds to better support students in both reading and math.
I encourage everyone to take some time to review our school improvement action plan and our interactive report card data. If you have any questions or suggestions for improvement, please do not hesitate to contact me at 847.543.4230 or [email protected].
Sincerely,
Vince Murray

2dediciembrede2016 Estimados Padres y/o Guardianes, A principios de este año muchas familias pasaron tiempo con nuestras maestras haciendo metas de aprendizaje para el año escolar 2016-2017. En febrero, tomaremos tiempo para ver el progreso de los estudiantes hacia esas metas. Haciendo metas y viendo datos de logros son muy importantes para el crecimiento de estudiantes a largo plazo. Lo mismo se puede decir sobre escuelas. Haciendo metas escolares y analizando logros son pasos importantes para tomar cada año, y esencial en el éxito para nuestro futuro escolar. En Prairieview, tomamos un año entero viendo y desarrollando metas para mejorar. Usamos resultados nacionales y locales así como las mejores prácticas para desarrollar nuestras metas. Después diseñamos nuestro desarrollo profesional alrededor de esas metas para mejor satisfacer las necesidades de todos los estudiantes. Nuestro plan de mejorar para nuestra escuela se puede ver en el sitio del web de nuestra escuela y se actualiza a menudo.
Los datos de logros de nuestra escuela se comparte de muchas maneras diferentes durante el año. Durante las conferencias del invierno muchas de nuestros evaluaciones locales se compartirán con ustedes para celebrar el crecimiento del estudiante. Para los evaluaciones nacionales, la tarjeta interactiva de Illinois es una herramienta maravillosa para los padres de poder ver como las escuelas locales se desempeñan de año en año. Puedes ver las calificaciones de nuestra escuela en http://illinoisreportcard.com/. Pongan el nombre de nuestra escuela y mucha de nuestra información será disponible para usted.
Un nuevo elemento a esa calificación es la encuesta “5 Esenciales”. Este encuesta se dará cada otro año a los miembros de nuestra comunidad y a los empleados de la escuela, con la encuesta mas reciente disponible ahora. Este información va más adelante que los exámenes anuales y se fija en como nuestros empleados y la comunidad se sienten sobre la escuela. Les animo tomar la encuesta en http://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/ y comparten sus pensamientos sobre nuestra escuela.
Finalmente, nuestra tarjeta de reporte interactiva se demostrará los datos más importantes sobre nuestra escuela. Estos datos son individuales a cada escuela, y celebran las dinámicas que comprometen nuestra escuela y población estudiantil. Como resultado de estas dinámicas, nuestra escuela ha sido recientemente nombrado una escuela del Título 1. Eso nos cualifica recibir una porción de los fondos del distrito de Título 1 para mejor soportar los estudiantes en la lectura y las matemáticas.
Les animo a todos tomar un poco de tiempo para revisar nuestro plan de mejoramiento para la escuela y nuestros datos de la tarjeta de reporte interactiva. Si tienen cualquier pregunta o sugerencias para mejorar, favor de llamarme al 847.543.4230 o mandar un correo electrónico al [email protected].
Sinceramente,
Vince Murray

Dear Parent/Guardian,
Parents, teachers and selected students in Community Consolidated School District 46 will have an opportunity to participate in
the fourth annual statewide Illinois 5Essentials Survey. This survey, available in English or Spanish, is designed to generate a
detailed picture of the inner workings of your child’s school. As a parent, this opportunity will allow you to share your thoughts
on the important elements of school effectiveness in a survey about your child’s school. On behalf of the Illinois State Board of
Education, the Illinois 5Essentials Survey will be administered online by UChicago Impact at the University of Chicago. The
survey gathers data related to five indicators that can predict important student outcomes, including improved attendance and
larger test score gains. These five indicators that affect and predict school success are:
● Effective Leaders
● Collaborative Teachers
● Involved Families
● Supportive Environments
● Ambitious Instruction
Prior research in more than 400 schools has shown that schools that were strong on at least three of these “5Essential” indicators
were 10 times more likely to improve student learning gains in math and reading than those that were weak on three or more
Essentials.
If at least 20 percent of parents complete this survey for each school, a parent supplement will be generated. The parent data will
not be reported on the State Report Card, but will be used by the district as a measure of continuous improvement. Teachers and
students in grades 68 will be responding to this survey. The information from these surveys will be included in the State School
Report Card. Your participation in the parent portion of the survey will help us understand the conditions at your child’s school
and guide improvement. Your identity and survey responses will be kept completely confidential and will never be connected to
you or your child. For parents, the Illinois 5Essentials Survey will be available between December 5, 2016 to January 16, 2017.
To take the survey please visit https://survey.5essentials.org/Illinois/ and select the appropriate survey to begin.
For students, the Illinois 5Essentials Survey will be available between December 3, 2016 and December 16, 2016 during school.
This survey should take approximately 25 minutes to complete. Please see the additional information regarding the Student
Survey for more details.
For more information about the Illinois 5Essentials Survey, or to view previous years’ reports, please visit
https://illinois.5essentials.org . If you have any questions or concerns, please contact 5Essentials Client Services at
18664401874 or [email protected].
Sincerely,
Paul Louis Assistant Superintendent of Teaching, Learning and Assessment
Community Consolidated School District 46 will provide an educational environment that maximizes the potential of ALL students to be prepared for life’s opportunities while developing a lasting appreciation for learning.

Engaging Presentations..... -3D Printing!
In this session, we will explore the wonders of 3D printing. First, we will learn how 3D printers work and describe different 3D printing technologies. We will discuss the various ways that 3D printing is used and show some real-life examples. There will be a working 3D printer in the classroom. The students will then have the opportunity to put together a 3D printed “puzzle” to reveal what is being made in the printer.
-The Science of Sleep
A fun and interesting discussion of sleep from birth through teenage years. We'll
explore normal and abnormal sleep behaviors in children by talking about topics like: Do other kids around the world sleep like me? What are common sleep disorders in
school-aged children? Is my sleep 'normal'? Do my dreams actually mean anything? Is it just me, or are all kids afraid of the dark? We'll end with a quick question and answer
session.
-How’s the Weather?
Have fun learning about this stormy topic with a cool game that will leave your brain filled with a tornado of facts.
-Everyday Chemistry
Whether you knew it or not, chemistry is going on around you all the time. Come and learn about the chemistry that takes place in your life everyday
