Dear Crandall Family,
Most importantly, I hope that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy.
We have finished our first week - it has been GREAT to have kids back in school (in the building and at home)!
This newsletter has much information about technology, our free/reduced lunch program and more....
Please let me know what i can do to help you and your family have the best year possible!
Russell Sills, Principal
Dear EPS Families,
We are writing to you to share information regarding our upcoming math and reading assessments. These assessments are used to plan individual instruction for students. We want our students to do their best work (they will not know all the answers) so that we get an accurate assessment of their skills and needs.
You will be receiving communication from your child’s teacher regarding dates and login information.
Please do the following:
- View the i-Ready student-centered video (with your child).
- View the i-Ready family-centered video.
- For K-5, view the “How to Log-in to i-Ready through Clever on your iPad” video. If you don't have the QR code you can access Clever through the iPad app by choosing “Log in with username/password” and use the student’s Office 365 account information.
Thank you,
Jason Lamesa, Math Coordinator
Adrienne Snow, Reading Coordinator
If you have questions about the math assessment, please reach out to Jason LaMesa atjlamesa@enfieldschools.org or (860) 253-6553.
If you have questions about the reading assessment, please reach out to Adrienne Snow atasnow@enfieldschools.org or (860) 306-9533.

Dear Crandall Families,
I hope you and your loved ones are safe and healthy! The new school year starts for students on Tuesday, September 8th and we are working hard to sure it is a SAFE, productive year for everyone!
Here is some information you need to know:
*Students will be attending school according to a Hybrid Schedule this year. Most students with last name starting with A-K will be attending on Mondays and Tuesdays. Most students will last names starting with L-Z will be attending on Thursdays and Fridays. All students will be home on Wednesdays and will attend school remotely using their new iPads. We can make adjustments based on childcare or work schedules. We will not be able to honor requests based strictly on preference. Please email me with your requests.
*All students will be issued individual iPads this year. We will distribute those prior to school – those dates will be shared with you when finalized. Attached to this email is the District Technology Handbook and the Signature Sheets. We will need a signed “Student/Parent iPad Usage Agreement from you on the day we distribute the iPads (we will have blank copies for you to sign if needed). The second page is the Insurance information. Although not required I strongly encourage you to purchase it. The price is very reasonable when you think about your child carrying a very expensive tablet back and forth to school all year.
*Students should receive their class placement letters and back to school information by August 28th. The process of creating classes more complex than ever and I want it to be correct when you get it. I appreciate your patience.
*If have not yet completed the School Attendance Survey for each of your school age children please click this link to do so now. I need your information by Tuesday to insure I have everything ready for each of your children.
*Crandall Childcare Form We are offering this resource to help families who are looking for other families that they can "trade" childcare or partner for virtual learning days with. Each family that enters their information by noon on Wednesday, August 19 will receive a copy of all the responses Wednesday afternoon. If you chose to enter information, please be aware that it will be shared so please keep this information private and do not share with others. You will be able to email the families that may be a match for you to explore those possibilities. Our hope is that this process may help families find other families who they can partner with to ease the challenges in the coming weeks.
There will be a lot of changes this year designed to keep your child, your family and our staff safe. I will share more information with you each week until school arrives.
My job is to keep your child safe and to make sure he/she has the very best year possible. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you think you can help me better reach this goal.
Here is the Technology Handbook and the Technology sign-off forms to the Crandall Update!
Please review:
We will schedule distribution of the iPads prior to the start of school (waiting on all shipments to arrive).

Similar to APP updates on your phones, the APPs we use for distance learning also require occasional updates. If you are not using the most #UpToDate versions of certain APPs, it can (on occasion) cause an issue with completing, or submitting, some schoolwork/assignments. *It's a good idea to check for updates regularly.
