If the weather is severe enough to cancel school, the first day of inclement weather will be a snow day for all! Any inclement weather day thereafter will be an online learning day. Elementary school families, this means you may see iPads come home with your students if questionable weather is forecasted.

In the event of an online learning day, elementary schools will begin at 9:30 a.m. Students should watch for Zoom links from their teachers. If students have trouble connecting or need help, they should reach out to their teacher. Canby School District strives to make the most of this valuable educational time, but please know that students will not be penalized if they are unable to connect.

To make sure you’re set to receive information about school delays, or closures, and online learning days, please subscribe to Canby School District on FlashAlert. Now is also a good time to update your text preferences online by listing your phone number.

For more information, please see our inclement weather page.

December’s average daily attendance rate was 93%. That was down from previous months, but we understand December is a different month with illness, travel and other factors causing more absences than usual.

Congratulations to 1st Grade! Their attendance was top in the school for the month of December. Attendance data shows that 88% of 1st graders regularly attended class in December*.

*Regular attendance is defined as attending greater than 90% of school days.

Thank you for supporting your child’s participation in the upcoming Oregon Statewide Assessments. Assessment is an important part of each student’s academic experience. Beginning in kindergarten and through grade 12, learners in the Canby School District experience a variety of formative, interim, and summative assessments. Oregon Statewide Assessments are one example of a summative assessment administered in grades 3 through 8, and grade 11. Students in these grade levels are required to participate in English Language Arts and Math assessments annually. In grades 5 and 8, students also participate in Science.

Canby School District, like all districts in Oregon, is striving for 95% or greater student participation. This goal is essential for understanding the depth and breadth of learning for student groups across our schools, and for evaluating programs and resources. Oregon Summative Assessment data provides information to the Canby community and to district teams about our successes or strengths and areas for improvement.

We will be communicating additional information about Oregon Statewide Assessment dates for your students’ grade level and ways to support your student’s success. You can find more information on our district State Assessment webpage. Please reach out to your school principal or classroom teacher if you have further questions. Canby School District appreciates your partnership.

Dear Eccles families,

As our first semester wraps up on January 26th, it is time to round up those overdue and missing library books. Weekly notices are being sent via email.

Any books showing overdue as of December 15th that are still missing at the end of the semester (January 26th) will be considered lost and a replacement book fee will be charged to your student's account. You will need to pay the fee to clear your student's account. If you find the book later, you can receive a refund.

If a student has 3 lost books on their account, they may not check out any more library books. A student can resume checking out books when the replacement fee is paid or when they return the books.

Thank you for your support of the Eccles Library and for helping us round up the books.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Adams
