Allison Sanchez

Hello! I am Allison Sanchez. I am thrilled to be teaching within this great district and be a part of the staff at Caryn Elementary since 2019.  I have lived in Rancho Cucamonga all my life and I went to school within the Etiwanda School District.

 I attended Cal Poly Pomona where I received my Bachelors of Arts in Liberal Studies as well as my Multiple Subject Credential. I also earned my Masters in Education from the University of Massachusetts Global.

In my free time I enjoy traveling, kayaking, cooking, baking and spending time with my family and my dogs!

I look forward to an exciting year of learning and fun.  Please select the Contact Me tab to email me if you have any questions or concerns.

FAQ

Can I bring birthday treats for my child?

Unfortunately, no. Our school is trying to help our students make healthy choices. Cutting down on treats is one way to do that. Joining the walking program before school each day is another great way to encourage a healthy lifestyle!

What if we lose the homework packet?

Click on the 'Homework' tab and scroll down to find the instructions for how to print out extra homework pages, using the 'Documents' tab. Please ask your teacher for any missing pages as soon as possible.

Accelerated Reader (AR)

Students are given time each day to take AR tests in the classroom.

Parents can log into Renaissance Place from home to check students AR points, however, students cannot take tests from home.

You may send a sticky note to school with the title of a book when they are ready to take an AR test.  This will not only remind them to take the test, but will also help them when typing in the title.

Students earn points for each test they pass with 60% or better, however, the goal is to pass AR tests with 85% or better. In second grade, AR is not part of students' grades.

  Tags are earned when students reach the following goals for 2nd grade: 

   Tag 1 = 5 points

   Tag 2 = 10 points

   Tag 3 = 15 points

   Tag 4 = 25 points

   Tag 5 = 35 points

   Tag 6 = 45 points

   Tag 7 = 60 points

   Tag 8 = 75 points  (I also give students a certificate and prizes for 100 and      150 points.)

To receive all 8 tags, students should earn 2-3 points each week.  Since most second grade books are .5 pts., this means they'll need to take (and pass) about 5 AR tests each week to earn 75 points during the school year.  (Note: some chapter books are worth more than .5 points.)
