Please send a note or call the absence line at 706-4130 (press 2). When your child is sick, please make sure they stay home. If they have a temperature over 100 degrees, students need to be fever free for 24 hours without the aid of fever reducing medication. If they have a cough or sneezing more than normal. If your child complains of pain in ears, throat, head, or chest. Has thrown up in the past 12 hours or had 2 or more episodes of diarrhea in the past 24 hours. Although we are asking that you let your child take responsibility for what they need to bring to school as this teaches them to become responsible adults, you as the parent are responsible for getting your child to school on time. Students need to be at school at 8:00 a.m. Please arrange your morning schedule so that this becomes the practice at your house. |

Welcome to the Home of the LionsAt Kimball Elementary students are our first priority. Our teachers and staff work hard to meet the needs of all students. Kimball is proud to be a part of the Caring School Community program. We look forward to working with you and your child/ren this school year.
Principal's MessageWe are quickly approaching our most important assessment time of the year, the STAR/CST. The assessment will be given to the 2nd-5thgrade students at our school. Please mark your calendars. The test dates will be May 1-May 11. Our teachers are currently working arduously to prepare our students for this very important test. Please support our efforts by making sure that your child attends school on those days, that they have had a great night’s sleep, and that they have eaten breakfast. Please try to schedule any appointments after school on those dates. I appreciate your support and I know that our students will do their best on the test! Sincerely, Sylvia Ramirez - Principal STAR Testing Information from Mary McCarthy, Director, Educational Services, AUSD Again this spring all students in grades 2-11 will be taking standardized tests, either the California Standards Test (CST), California Modified Assessments (CMA) or the California Alternative Performance Assessment (CAPA) as part of the STAR program. Teachers will receive a written report of the test results for all of their students. Parents or guardians will receive a written report of their child’s scores. The test information will provide a snapshot of the progress your child is making in mastering the California standards. The scores will not affect a child’s grades. This information may be helpful in discussing your child’s goals and objectives. This information is also useful in deciding if students would benefit from special programs such as gifted and talented, summer school, etc. The results of the STAR are also used to determine if your child’s school meets accountability goals of the federal law of No Child Left Behind (NCLB). It is very important that each student is tested to help meet these goals. If you do not want your student to take the STAR, contact an administrator at your school to make appointment to discuss the waiver process. Our medal winners
