Paw Plans
•
On February 8 – 11 police and fire personnel will be using our school to run safety drills from 6:00-10:00 PM.
They will be running different scenarios and using our building layout purposefully since there are several schools in
Bend – La Pine with the same layout. I was happy to hear that they wanted to use our facility. They will have a
strong knowledge of our school incase we should ever need them.

Invention Convention is coming! Invention Convention is a Kinder – 5th event where students are asked to brainstorm, plan, and create a
prototype and poster for an invention that solves a problem for them, their family, our area or the world. Next week we will spread the word
to all the students through presentations in the wings. Kindergarten students will be working with the famous Mrs. Schlaich (a former Miller
teacher) to create inventions from recycled items as a learning activity. If a kindergartener would like to enter an invention in Invention
Convention they can do so working at home just like the other grade levels. Intent to Invent forms are due Thursday, February 4. Invention
posters and prototypes are due Thursday, February 18. More info to come.

Vision Screening: On January 21, 2016
we will have vision screening for all
students in kindergarten, first, third and fifth
grade. If you have a second or fourth grade
child that you want tested, please notify his /
her teacher. Screening will be done by the
Oregon Lions Sight & Hearing Foundation
(OLSHF) along with local Lions. If you can
volunteer (help organize students) please
contact Meredith Blackwell,
[email protected]
The OLSHF uses a harmless, photo screening digital device called The SPOT that
captures detailed information from a single
snapshot of your child’s eye, and objectively
checks for vision problems. This results in
less errors.
“Good eyesight facilitates learning in
school and development in general.” If you
receive a Spot referral, from the School
Nurse, it is recommended that your child
visit an eye care professional. Please call
Meg Moyer at 541-355-2500 with any
questions about the referral form.
If you have questions regarding The SPOT
Photo Screener please contact
[email protected]
Thank You From The
Office: Thank you for the
many thoughtful cards,
gifts and treats we received before the
Winter Break! Our staff is fortunate to have
so many kind families. It is just one of the
many reasons we enjoy our jobs at Miller!
Label Miller Spirit Wear: Many of our
students have Miller t-shirts, sweatshirts and
hats. These items all look the same! Please
label items with your student’s name so we
can reunite lost items with their owner. This
goes for ALL coats, sweatshirts, hats,
lunchboxes, etc.

th
Bend Elks Holiday Canned Food
Drive: Great job on the canned food drive
last month. We came in just shy of our goal
of 2,300 pounds. As a reward for the effort of
our students, we will have a CRAZY HAIR
day on Friday, January 22.
Educational Technology Parent
Group: Apple's recent update 9.2 has created
some problems with our iPads. Bend-Lapine is
working with Apple to solve the problems. 9.2.1
should fix the problems. Please bear with us and
reassure your child that most likely the update is
causing the problems.
Please remember that it is perfectly OK for you
as parents to define the rules regarding use or
non-use of electronics in your home. At this
point, most teachers are not requiring homework
to be completed with wi-fi access. So it is fine
to not allow use of iPads at home. Also, school
iPads are used for educational purposes, so
playing games on them at home is your decision
to allow or not allow.

2015-16 Notice for Statewide Tests
ALL STUDENTS GRADUATE PREPARED
In 2010, Oregon adopted higher K-12 standards in English Language
Arts and Math to ensure all students move from grade to grade with
the academic knowledge and skills necessary for success beyond
high school. Because we raised the bar for what we expect students
to know and be able to do, we have also changed the way we
measure student progress through our state tests, known as Smarter
Balanced.
How much time do the tests take?
The tests are not timed so your child can take as long as he or she
needs to fully demonstrate what he or she knows and can do. With
our new exams, your child only tests once each year, unlike our
previous exams which many students took multiple times. Learn
more about the estimated time your child may take to complete the
tests on Page 35 of Oregon’s Test Administration Manual:
http://tinyurl.com/TestAdminManual.
What do the results mean and where do I get my child’s results?
Test results identify your child’s strengths and areas for
improvement in English Language Arts and Math. Each subject will
be broken into categories and will show how well your child
performed in each area. The tests measure student learning on a 4point scale. Your school will share your child’s scores with you at the
beginning of the next school year to help support your child’s
success as he or she moves from grade to grade.
Why does participation matter?
While no single test can give a complete picture of your child’s
progress, having your child take the statewide tests provides
educators and administrators with information about what
educational approaches are working and where additional
resources are needed. Your child’s participation is important to
ensure schools and districts receive the targeted resources they
need to help all students succeed.
OREGON’S STATE TESTS
o Challenge your child to think
critically and apply his or her
knowledge to real-world
problems
o Go beyond multiple choice and
ask your child to explain his or
her answers
o Act as a snapshot of your child’s
progress and may be considered
along with other pieces of
information to determine your
child’s academic success
o Help identify schools and
districts that need additional
supports to ensure more students
are meeting higher standards
STATEWIDE TESTING WINDOWS
Smarter Balanced English Language Arts &
Math Tests
February 9 – June 10, 2016
Oregon Extended Assessments for English
Language Arts & Math
February 18 – April 28, 2016
When will my child take the test?
Your child will be tested once after he or she has completed at least two-thirds of the school year. Your child’s
school will determine the specific dates your child takes the tests within the statewide testing window above.
STAY INFORMED
Talk to your child’s teacher or school principal if you have questions or want to learn more. Patience and
persistence will be required to help our students and schools continue towards success.

Notificación sobre los Exámenes Estatales 2015-16
TODOS LOS ESTUDIANTES SE GRADÚAN PREPARADOS
En 2010, Oregón adoptó estándares más altos de K-12 en Artes de Lenguaje
en Inglés y Matemáticas para que todos los estudiantes pasen de grado a
grado con los conocimientos académicos y habilidades necesarias para tener
éxito más allá de la escuela secundaria. Como hemos elevado el nivel para lo
que esperamos que los estudiantes sepan y sean capaces de hacer, también
hemos cambiado el modo que medimos el progreso de los estudiantes a
través de nuestros exámenes estatales, conocidos como Smarter Balanced.
¿Cuánto tiempo toman los exámenes?
Los exámenes no tienen límite de tiempo, su hijo/a puede tomar tanto tiempo
como sea necesario para demostrar completamente lo que él o ella sabe y
puede hacer. Con nuestros nuevos exámenes, su hijo/a solamente tomará el
examen una vez al año, que es diferente de nuestros exámenes anteriores que
muchos estudiantes tomaron varias veces. Para obtener más información sobre
el tiempo estimado que su hijo/a puede tomar para completar los exámenes,
vaya a la página 35 del Manual de Administración del Examen de Oregón:
http://tinyurl.com/TestAdminManual.
¿Qué significan los resultados y dónde consigo los resultados de mi
hijo/a?
Los resultados del examen identifican los puntos fuertes y áreas para mejorar
en Artes de Lenguaje en Inglés y Matemáticas. Cada tema se divide en
categorías y muestra cómo su hijo/a es evaluado en cada área. Los exámenes
miden al estudiante que aprende con una escala de 4 puntos. Su escuela va a
compartir las calificaciones de su hijo/a al inicio del próximo año escolar para
ayudar a apoyar el éxito de pasar de un grado a otro.
EXÁMENES ESTATALES DE OREGÓN
o Retan a su hijo/a a pensar
críticamente y aplicar su
conocimiento a los problemas
reales del mundo
o Van más allá de opción múltiple y
pide que su hijo/a explique sus
respuestas
o Actúan como una foto instantánea
del progreso de su hijo/a y pueden
ser considerados junto con otras
piezas de información para
determinar el éxito académico de
su hijo/a
o Ayudan a identificar las escuelas y
los distritos que necesitan apoyo
adicional para asegurar que un
mayor número de estudiantes
están cumpliendo con los
estándares más altos
PERÍODOS DE EXÁMENES ESTATALES
Exámenes Smarter Balanced de Artes de
Lenguaje en Inglés y Matemáticas
9 de febrero – 10 de junio de 2016
¿Por qué es importante la participación?
Aunque ningún examen puede dar una imagen completa del progreso de su
hijo/a, tomando los exámenes estatales proporciona a educadores y
administradores con información sobre los enfoques educativos en que están
trabajando y donde se necesitan recursos adicionales. La participación de su
hijo/a es importante para asegurar que las escuelas y los distritos reciban los
recursos dirigidos para ayudar a todos los estudiantes tener éxito.
Evaluación Extendida de Oregón para
Artes de Lenguaje en Inglés y Matemáticas
18 de febrero – 28 de abril de 2016
¿Cuándo tomará mi hijo/a el examen?
Su hijo/a será evaluado después de que él o ella haya completado por lo menos dos tercios del año escolar. La escuela de su hijo/a
determinará las fechas específicas cuando su hijo/hija tomará los exámenes dentro de los tiempos determinados por el estado.
MANTÉNGASE INFORMADO
Si tiene preguntas comuníquese con el maestro o director de la escuela de su hijo/a. Paciencia y persistencia serán necesarias
para ayudar a los estudiantes y las escuelas continuar hacia el éxito.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Next PTO Meeting
Please mark your calendar for the next PTO meeting that will be held on
Monday, February 1st, 2016 at 9 a.m. in the Media Center. Everyone is
welcome. Please join us! For more information about our programs, or how
to contact us, please visit the PTO website http://www.millerpto.org/ or
“Like” us on Facebook at Miller Elementary PTO.
The Art Cart is Rolling!
We are getting ready to start our second Art on a Cart project, and this one
will require parent volunteers! This project will be led by our artist in
residence and is called The Living Map. Students will be creating pieces of
art relating to how they connect to the natural world around them by
combining visual storytelling, poetry and photography. Grades 1&2 will be
creating paintings, grades 2&3 will be taking photographs and grades 4&5
will be creating short films, all talking about how they connect to the natural
world around them. These pieces will then be digitized and added to a map of
Bend and displayed in the halls at Miller. QR codes will be added so parents
can access and enjoy their students' work. The goal of this project is to teach
the kids how to use technology to create art, express one’s self and connect
deeper to the natural world.
We need to have at least one volunteer per class (preferably more) attend the
volunteer training session. The training will teach the parent volunteers how
to do the voice recordings that will complement the student's art pieces. The
date of the training is Monday, January 25 at 9:00am in the media
center. There will also be a make-up training the next day, Tuesday the 26th
at 2:00pm in the conference room, but our hope is that the majority of volunteers will come to the first training session. If you have any questions, please
email Katy Bowles at [email protected] or Kim Hill at
[email protected].
Dishwasher Volunteers Needed
Since the kitchen is open every day of school, we are in need of volunteers
every single school day. No experience necessary, on-the-job training. If you

strains and sprains; Foot pain including Plantar Fasciitis, Turf Toe and issues with the arches of the
foot, Achilles Tendonitis; Posture issues including Scoliosis.
Our goal is to not only relieve the pain of the immediate injury, but to address the mechanics of the
whole body to help prevent re-occurrence or future related problems.
If you or your child needs Physical Therapy please consider Hands On Physical Therapy.
