Megan Parker, Attendance
Dear Parents/Guardians,
I’d like to thank all of you for attending Back To School Night in
September. We had an attendance rate of 98%! What an impressive
demonstration of not only your commitment to the education of your
children but also to your support of their teachers. We are proud to be
surrounded by such a wonderful group of parents and guardians.
Fall picture make-up day will be scheduled in late October or early
November. We will send a note home in your child’s Tuesday folder as
soon as we are notified of the date
Red Ribbon Week 2015 is October 26th – October 30th. Our students will
be participating in a kickoff assembly on Monday October 12th.
Our annual Chadbourne Halloween Carnival will actually be on Halloween
this year! Although our students are not allowed to wear costumes to
school during the week - they are allowed to wear them to the Carnival on
Saturday 10/31 from 10am – 2pm. We are looking forward to a great
turnout at this fun festival! (There might even be surprise guests handing
out candy or running a booth!)

California English Language Development Test (CELDT) 2015/2016
The State of California mandates that the California English Language Development Test (CELDT) be
given to students who speak another language when they first enter a California public school. This test
identifies students who are English learners (limited in English proficiency) so that schools may
immediately provide appropriate instruction to meet their needs. The CELDT must also be given to all
English learners every year to monitor their progress in learning English and to help evaluate the programs
they receive. The test has four parts: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. For the 2015/2016
school year, Fremont Unified will be giving this test starting October 1 until October 31, 2015.
Additionally, we found some students who were never initially tested upon registration. These students will
also be tested during this time frame. If you have any questions about the test, please call Federal
and State Programs at (510) 659-2531.
Examen de Desarrollo del Idioma Inglés de California (CELDT) 2015/2016
El Estado de California ordena que todos los estudiantes que hablan otro idioma cuando se inscriben por
primera vez en una escuela pública de California tomen el Examen de Desarrollo del Idioma Inglés de
California (CELDT). Este examen identifica a los Estudiantes de Inglés (dominio limitado de inglés)
para que las escuelas puedan proporcionar inmediatamente la instrucción adecuada para cumplir con sus
necesidades. El CELDT debe también darse a todos los Estudiantes de Inglés cada año para supervisar su
progreso en su aprendizaje del Inglés y para evaluar los programas que reciben. El examen incluye cuatro
partes: Escuchar, Expresión Oral, Lectura y Escritura. Para el año escolar 2015/2016, el
Distrito Escolar Unificado de Fremont proporcionará este examen comenzando el 1º de octubre hasta el 31 de
octubre de 2015. Además, encontramos algunos estudiantes que inicialmente nunca tomaron el examen cuando
se inscribieron. Dichos estudiantes también tomarán el examen durante este periodo. Si tiene alguna pregunta
sobre el examen, por favor comuníquese al Departamento de Programas Federales y Estales al (510) 659-2531.
加州英語發展測試 (CELDT) 2015/2016
加州政府規定在初學語言時說非英語的學生在首次進入加州公立學校時必須接受加州
