The mySAEBRS tool, produced by FastBridge Illuminate for grades 2 through 12, is a quick, five-minute social, academic, and emotional behavior risk screener. It is a brief, norm-referenced tool for screening students to identify those who are at risk for social-emotional behavior concerns. This is the same company that is used for the district’s math and reading assessments. Having all three assessments on the same platform allows educators to have easy access to the results while meeting state requirements for assessment and screening. All data is securely gathered and specific to each student, with results containing a scaled score. Student-specific results are available to parents.

Over 70% of schools in Kansas use MySAEBRS/SAEBRS to identify needs that may present barriers to learning. Results from this survey are one piece of data to help educators identify and provide instruction and interventions within their classrooms. No personally identifiable data of students will be collected through the administration of the survey.
The surveys take about 5 minutes and are done on the student’s individual device. Before the survey is administered, the student will be informed that the student has the right to refuse to take the survey and that the student will not suffer any adverse consequences based on such refusal.
Additional information is available on our website on the parent page and at enrollment.
If you would like bus transportation, provided by DS Bus Lines, for your student to and from school, you must complete this form. Forms will also be available for enrollment.

Track Update!
Big news at Mettner Field! The entire track has been poured and it looks amazing! Thank you Solid Rock Construction for your dedication to making sure it is exactly right. A fun fact, the track contained 675 square yards of concrete.
There is still work to finish up at the track and the track has to cure before the rubber can be installed. Remember the track is still closed for construction as they remove forms, finish the high jump pits, and do a lot dirt work.
It's time for a track renovation update!
More exciting things happening at Mettner Field!! The track is very close to being prepared for its first load of concrete! Here are some fun facts: There were 22,000 ties at each intersection of rebar, 1800 stakes holding the forms in place, the track is level within one inch around the inside and around the outside forms, and a 1% grade from inside to outside!
Stay tuned as renovations continue!
