Community Involvement

Community Involvement

There are many opportunities for the community to make a difference for children in Clarksville-Montgomery County Schools. The School System has a goal to raise student achievement for ALL students. We believe in this goal and we are committed to keeping our focus on reading, writing and math.

 

With support from the community we know that we will be more effective and efficient in helping every child succeed.

 

Proctors Needed for TCAP Testing


Dear CMCSS Parents and Community Partners,

 

Although the week of April 18-24 is “National Public School Volunteer Week”,  CMCSS needs to get an early start with volunteers for our schools during TCAP assessments which take place April 13-16. During this time proctors are needed to help teachers monitor student test taking during the day. As a TCAP volunteer you will be asked to watch the children while they are being tested. A classroom teacher will also be in the room.

 

Volunteers will be asked to be available for monitoring over a 2 1/2 hour period which will include a required training prior to the testing. Monitors are asked to be there when the schools open. The opening time for each school is listed below. Please feel free to volunteer for one day or several days. Your commitment and support is greatly appreciated!

 

If you are at least 21 years old and would like to sign up to help, please visit the website TCAP Volunteer Signup site.
