ESSA State Report Cards

The Office of Public Instruction released the 2017-18 school year report cards on Monday, April 22, 2019. The federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires state, district, and school-level data to be displayed on report cards in a concise, understandable, and accessible manner for families and communities. The state, district, and local report cards will be available along with additional information on the OPI’s new report card webpage.  This data is already publicly available on the state’s GEMS Data warehouse. It is now being conveyed in an easier format for the public to understand.

M.A.D. Mondays (Make A Difference Monday):   

We are starting a program, “Make A Difference Monday”, to supplement our food pantry at Hellgate High School.  On Mondays, we are asking families who have the ability, to pick up just one extra non-perishable item during their weekly grocery shopping trips to donate to our supplemental pantry on M.A.D. Mondays.  Your kids can drop off the items at the front office on their way in to school and help to restock the shelves which provide to so many who are struggling. 

Many kids are going without these days and we are hoping you can make a difference!  One extra box of granola bars, one can of tuna fish, a can of soup, a stick of deodorant – just one item per week will make a difference in the life of a child who is in need.

Please help us by supporting M.A.D. Mondays and together, we can truly make a difference.  Thank you so much for your support!

If you have any questions, please contact Tracy Ledyard at extension 6062
