FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PHONE: 916-319-0818 May 29, 2013 E-MAIL: pslater@cde.ca.gov State Schools Chief Tom Torlakson Encourages Taking an Early Look at New, Online Smarter Balanced Practice Tests SACRAMENTO—State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson encouraged students, educators, and parents to try out the Smarter Balanced Practice Tests launched today to familiarize themselves and the public with the new generation of computer-based assessments students will take starting in the 2014-15 school year. “These practice tests give teachers, students, and parents a glimpse into understanding the skills and abilities our children will need to do well on test day and in preparation for college and career,” Torlakson said. “This marks another step forward in the effort to help schools prepare to replace outdated assessments with tests that gauge the kind of critical thinking and deeper learning that comes with a world-class education.” The Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (Smarter Balanced) placed online for public access the set of practice tests for grades three through eight and grade eleven. For each grade, practice tests will be available in both English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics. The practice tests are available on the California Department of Education Smarter Balanced Practice Tests Web page. The practice tests include test questions with the same features that students will experience in 2014-15, when the tests are scheduled to be given to more than 19 million of the nation’s public K-12 students, including California’s students. Smarter Balanced assessment items and performance tasks were written and reviewed in collaboration with K-12 teachers and higher education faculty and aligned to the Common Core State Standards. Online access to the practice tests will not require a unique username and password, so schools and districts can use them for teacher training as well as discussions with parents, policymakers, and other interested stakeholders. Members of the public are also allowed access. There will be no immediate scoring of the tests, but scoring keys will be made available later in the year. The release of the practice tests follows the administration of the Smarter Balanced Pilot Test, which was the first large-scale tryout of items and performance tasks. The Pilot Test was taken by more than one million students in Smarter Balanced member states from February through mid-May. The California Department of Education (CDE) is a state agency led by State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson.

Student Accident Insurance
Dear Parents:
The Lake Elsinore Unified School District does not provide medical, accident or dental insurance for pupils injured on school premises or through school activities. In accordance with Education Code Section 49472, the District is making available a low cost medical/dental accident insurance program. The purpose of this plan is to provide assistance at a minimum cost to meet some of the expenses for accidental injury. The plan does not provide unlimited coverage, but does offer substantial assistance in the event of injury.
There are two levels of benefits available. The “High Option” is recommended if your child has no family coverage or if your private coverage has a high deductible. All plans are available on a “School Time” or “24-Hour” (all day, everyday) basis and can cost as little as $10 (one time annual payment). See rates below.
Please visit your Childs’ School Office to obtain a detailed brochure/application, or you may obtain one and sign up online at www.peinsurance.com (click on Products, then Student Insurance). Please read the Student Benefits Plan Brochure to select the plan that best meets your needs.
NOW AVAILABLE AT NO COST – FREE PRESCRIPTION DRUG CARD – GET ONE AT YOUR CHILD’S SCHOOL OFFICE OR THE WEBSITE ABOVE
The plans pay the first $500.00 in benefits in addition to other insurance, which can help you meet your primary insurance deductibles and/or co-payments.
Since the district does NOT provide medical/dental accident insurance, we urge that serious consideration be given to the program. If you have further questions, please call Pacific Educators, Inc., Student Accident Department at (800) 722-3365 or (714) 639-0962.

Volunteers Welcome!
Volunteer applications can be picked up at each school site.
Volunteering is a privilege and a service that teachers and staff truly appreciate. All volunteers must however, have a helpful task to perform under the direct or indirect supervision of a District employee; otherwise the volunteer may be asked to leave the campus. ID badges should be worn at all times a person is volunteering. All volunteers (except current employees and substitute employees) must be processed for an A red badge first. Current employees and substitute employees need only fill out an *Intent to Renew Form to register as a Volunteer B (purple badge) at their child’s school.
