Annual“Dress Like a Rock Star” Day! All students K-5 are<br />

encouraged to rock your best school-appropriate attire as we<br />

celebrate the end of TCAP!


From Our Principal …<br />

As our 3 rd , 4 th , and 5 th grade students begin the last two TCAP tests (Science on Wednesday<br />

and Social Studies on Thursday), I want to thank Kenrose parents for all you have done to<br />

support your children’s learning this year. Thank you especially for preparing your children for<br />

TCAP by studying with them, making sure they get rest and eat a good breakfast prior to<br />

testing, and encouraging them to do their best. As parents of 3 rd -5 th graders already know,<br />

TCAP has taken on even more importance this year as throughout Tennessee, TCAP will be<br />

calculated as 15% of students’ second semester grades, and students in 3 rd grade who score<br />

Below Basic on reading will be required to participate in a summer intervention before being<br />

promoted to 4 th grade. In addition, also by a new state law in effect this year, TCAP results<br />

determine between 35% and 50% of each educator’s evaluation for the year, even for<br />

educators in non-tested grades such as K-2, specials teachers, etc. All of our teachers and staff<br />

at Kenrose work hard to ensure not only that our students do well on TCAP, but that they<br />

learn the required curriculum, which can be quite challenging. This can be a very stressful<br />

time for educators, knowing the importance of the performance of our students on this one<br />

assessment. Thank you for your support of our teachers and staff; it makes a huge difference<br />

to all of us. If you are interested in the types of questions asked on TCAP, you can view item<br />

samplers and practice tests at http://www.tn.gov/education/assessment/ach_samplers.shtml<br />

.<br />

As we move into the future, you will be hearing more about a new curriculum called the<br />

Common Core State Standards, which has been adopted by the state of Tennessee along with<br />

47 other states. Our state will be implementing the Common Core curriculum in phases,<br />

beginning with the first phase in 2012-13. For more information about the Common Core, visit<br />

http://www.corestandards.org/ .<br />

Thank you for your support of the Kenrose PTO Fun Run this week that supports our PTO<br />

budget! The Fun Run provides funding for instructional materials and equipment that is<br />

invaluable to teaching and learning at Kenrose. Each teacher receives funding directly from<br />

the PTO, and larger ticket items for the school are funded in the PTO budget. If you are<br />

curious about items purchased with PTO funding that are being used to help your children<br />

learn and grow, ask any teacher or staff member at Kenrose! Once again, thank you for your<br />

support of the Fun Run!<br />

TCAP 101: How to Help “Rock the Test” on 4/27, 5/30, 5/2 & 5/3<br />

TCAP TESTING<br />

The Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program Achievement Test (TCAP), is a<br />

timed, multiple choice test for 3 rd -5 th graders that measures skills in reading, language<br />

arts, mathematics, science and social studies.<br />

TIPS FOR PARENTS<br />

• See that your child is rested and eats breakfast the day of the test.<br />

• See that your child arrives to school on time and is relaxed.<br />

• Discuss the test openly and in a positive way.<br />

• Encourage your child to do the best work possible.<br />

• Do not send your child to school if illness is apparent.<br />

• Do not remove your child from school on test days for appointments.<br />

• Discuss the test openly and in a positive way.<br />

Parent Strategies for Reducing Test Anxiety<br />

• Have realistic expectations of your child's performance while encouraging his/her best efforts.<br />

• Emphasize that the test is only one measure of academic performance.<br />

• Emphasize that test scores do not determine a person's worth.<br />

Brain research shows… less sugar and high fiber is best. Protein = long term energy<br />

Sleep, sleep and sleep = a healthy brain (have a set bedtime and wake-time)

Way to go Kenrose Cardinals!


OUR GOAL IS 100% PARTICIPATION<br />

for the<br />

2012 ANNUAL KENROSE FUN RUN!!!<br />

Our annual FUN RUN is on Friday, <strong>May</strong> 4th! Our goal for the 2012 Fun<br />

Run is to have 100% school and student participation! The classroom in<br />

each grade level that has the highest percentage of pledge<br />

envelopes turned in by Thursday, <strong>May</strong> 3rd will be rewarded with an<br />

ice cream party! Also, every classroom with 100% of the envelopes<br />

turned in by this date will receive an ice cream party. If a student<br />

turns in their envelope, regardless of the number of pledges or flat<br />

donations, they will receive credit for their participation.<br />

As of Monday, April 30 th , only 13% of Kenrose students have turned in<br />

their Fun Run envelopes. Please return your child’s envelope today so<br />

Kenrose can meet the goal of 100% participation.<br />

Thank you for your continued support of Kenrose!


It’s time to get your pledges for the annual<br />

KENROSE FUN RUN!!!<br />

It’s almost time for our 2 nd big fundraiser of the year! Our annual FUN RUN<br />

will be held on Friday, <strong>May</strong> 4th. IT IS GOING TO BE A BLAST! Pledge<br />

envelopes and information were sent home with your children Thursday, April<br />

19th. Please see the letter that was sent home with the pledge envelope for<br />

detailed information.<br />

You are encouraged to solicit as many sponsors as you can (grandparents,<br />

aunts and uncles, neighbors, etc.) and collect pledges for laps completed or<br />

simply give a flat donation. You’ll be amazed how quickly the money adds up!!!<br />

If every Kenrose student raises $50 through pledges or flat donations, we<br />

will meet our goal this year! More importantly, our goal is to have 100%<br />

school and student participation! Please keep in mind that this is our last<br />

fundraiser for the year. The money raised from this event funds our general<br />

PTO budget and is used for important items such as technology upgrades,<br />

computer lab technician, individual committees, landscaping, playground,<br />

library books, etc. We encourage you to ask your child's teacher about all<br />

the useful items purchased with the money collected from Fun Run.<br />

If you or your child(ren) do not have a preference with collecting pledges<br />

or a flat donation, please consider sending in a flat donation to Kenrose.<br />

We sincerely appreciate either, but it is easier for accounting purposes if a<br />

flat donation is sent for Fun Run.<br />

As of Monday, April 30 th , we have collected $3743.00 in flat donations and<br />

pledges towards our goal of raising $20,000.00 for Fun Run. Please send in<br />

your child’s envelope today so Kenrose can meet our goal for Fun Run 2012.


Thank you for your continued support of Kenrose!<br />

Dear Parents,<br />

THE 2012 KENROSE FUN RUN IS HERE!<br />

On Friday, <strong>May</strong> 4th, the students will participate in our annual FUN RUN. The money raised from this event<br />

funds our general PTO budget and is used for important items at Kenrose such as technology, computer lab<br />

technician, individual committees, landscaping, playground, library books etc., etc.! If each child raises $50, we<br />

will meet our annual projected budget. More importantly, our goal this year is to have 100% school and student<br />

participation! Here are a few important notes:<br />

• Pledge / collection envelopes are attached in this packet.<br />

• Students will take pledges for the amount of laps they can run or walk on a 1/6 mile track in 30 minutes<br />

during an assigned time on Friday, <strong>May</strong> 4th.<br />

• Envelopes with pledges and any flat donations are due on Wednesday, <strong>May</strong> 2nd in order for the student to<br />

receive credit for the classroom participation contest.<br />

• Begin taking pledges from families, friends and co-workers ASAP. Pledges can be made for the number of<br />

laps the students will run/walk OR a flat donation can be made. We encourage a $1.00 minimum pledge per<br />

lap for simplicity in accounting.<br />

Please make all checks payable to KENROSE PTO.<br />

• On Friday, <strong>May</strong> 4 th , all students (whether they turned in envelopes or not) will run or walk the track for 30<br />

minutes. The number of laps completed will be recorded on the envelope and sent home with the students<br />

to collect their pledges.<br />

• All pledged money is due by Friday, <strong>May</strong> 11th.<br />

• Parents are encouraged to come and cheer on their child! You may also run/walk with them. A schedule of<br />

class times is included. If you would like to help, please send in attached volunteer form. Younger siblings<br />

are welcome, but will not be allowed on the track.<br />

• Please make sure to send your child with a bottle of water to be used during the Fun Run. Popsicles will be<br />

provided by Publix.<br />

• If you or your children do not have a preference on taking pledges or a flat donation, please consider<br />

sending in a flat donation to Kenrose. We sincerely appreciate either, but it is easier for accounting<br />

purposes to have a flat donation.<br />

If you have any questions, please contact: Johnna Miller @ 618-4776 or Donna Walsh @ 482-7227<br />

Kenrose. You can bring your own skates or rent them for $3.00.<br />

Don’t forget to tell them you are from Kenrose when you pay, so that<br />

we will get credit -- This is a great way to help Kenrose PTO raise<br />

money for our school! Also, sign in with our skate mom, Lori Dawson,<br />

at the Kenrose table so your name will go into the drawing for door<br />

prizes given near the end of each party. The class with the most<br />

attendance will be able to see the Lolly Pop Stand--it will be brought<br />

to your classroom the next day and your entire class will receive<br />

treats!<br />

Don’t miss the last skate party of the year. We will be drawing names<br />

for one lucky girl and one lucky boy from Kenrose for a special<br />

prize. Look for more details to come next week!!

Children do not always make the most healthy choices when it comes to eating, and several parents have<br />

expressed a desire to limit ice cream and other treats from the Kenrose café. Parents who wish to limit your<br />

child’s ability to purchase less healthy choices, including daily ice cream, are encouraged to do so by going to<br />

http://www.wcs.edu/foodsvc/restrictions_form.html.<br />

If you have any questions about restrictions please contact cafeteria manager Kim Matlock. Thank you for<br />

helping your child make healthy choices; they impact learning in a positive way!<br />

Child Find<br />

<strong>Williamson</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Schools</strong> identify students who may be having problems throughChild Find. This may<br />

include children who are gifted (having high intellectual potential) as well as students who have trouble seeing<br />

or hearing, need special education services, or need supports to learn. Children with giftedness or special<br />

education needs can be found in all types of families. It is important to find these children and give them the<br />

help they need as early as possible. Families or anyone who is concerned about how a child is doing can refer<br />

the child for screening by calling Student Support Services at 472-4130.


News from our Library<br />

The end of the year is quickly coming. It has been great watching our students grow as readers. As a school, we<br />

have checked-out over 36,000 books this year. That’s about 7,500 more than last year. Way to go and keep<br />

reading!<br />

The end of the school year also means inventorying our library, so all library books will be due <strong>May</strong> 7.<br />

This helps us get our books organized, shelved, inventory completed and our library ready for next year. Thanks<br />

for your help in making the end of the year go smoothly for our library.<br />

Thanks,<br />

Alisa Breece and Beth Lifsey<br />
