Chandler Unified School District will be administering the Common Final assessment online through SchoolCity for the 2022-2023 school year. Moving from paper-based testing (PBT) to computer-based testing (CBT) comes with several benefits for students. One benefit is the ability to provide universal accommodations to students that are similar in nature to the state assessment. For example, for assessments that don’t assess reading comprehension, one accommodation available to ALL students is text-to-speech.

In order to access text-to-speech, each student must have their own headphones/earbuds that are wired (not Bluetooth) and have a standard 3.5mm headphone jack (not USB). While students are encouraged to bring their own headphones/earbuds, CUSD will provide a pair of earbuds to any student who is unable to do so. Students are responsible for keeping the headphones/earbuds for future tests. This will include state testing in April (grades 9 and 11) and second semester Common Finals.

What is Chandler Buddies?

The mission of Chandler Buddies is to create a culture of acceptance and inclusion . This club provides opportunities to build one-to-one friendships between individuals with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Here at CHS we have had a lot of success building and maintaining relationships between students with intellectual disabilities and their non-disabled peers. While participating in Chandler Buddies, students have the opportunity to develop the social skills needed to build social confidence and meaningful friendships. Students are paired using questionnaires and by attending "matching" parties.

How can I get involved?

You can participate in chandler buddies as a Buddy, Peer Buddy or as an Associate Member.

Buddy - Buddies are students with intellectual or developmental disabilities. All Buddies are paired with a Peer Buddy and attend all events. Buddies maintain contact with their Peer Buddy and maintain contact with their Peer Buddy at least once a week.

Peer Buddy - Peer Buddies are matched to Buddies and facilitate the one-to-one friendships. Peer Buddies attend all club events, and maintain contact with their Buddy at least once a week.

Associate Member - Associate members attend all Chandler Buddies meetings and events. They are not paired one-to-one with a Buddy, however, interact with all buddies casually throughout the year.

What activities do Chandler Buddies members participate in?

The club gets together once a month for a variety of activities that includes picnics, game nights, movie nights, holiday parties, lip sync battles, making art for the art show, etc.

If you are selected as a peer buddy, you will be paired up with another student. Peer Buddies and Buddies communicate or socialize at least once a week. This can include phone calls, texts, eating lunch, going to a sporting event, dinner and a movie, video games, etc.
