Wow.  Just HOW many apps, social media venues, or Internet access is actually out there for our students to access it?  How do we, as parents, keep up with the latest and greatest apps that teens are using?  Check out THIS LINK from Commonsensemedia.org to help you (and us!) navigate what's going on with our kids!





NOW is a GREAT time to start having your Viking explore the CAASPP Practice & Training Tests. This will help prepare them for the CAASPP summative that they will be taking in just over 8 weeks. Please go to www.fsusd.org/assessment and click on the green button "SBAC Practice & Training Tests" to access the site. Students can access as a Guest at school or home!!! Practice makes AMAZING!! =)
