<h2>Student Testing</h2>
<p>MAP Tests taken at our school two times a year (quarter 1 and quarter 4) to track student achievement in grades 3-9.</p>
<p>PSAT Preliminary SAT - A standardized test developed to prepare students for the SAT. Exceptional scores on this test may qualify in the USA for the National Merit Scholarship. CRICS students in grades 10 and 11 take this test during the first quarter.</p>
<p>SAT Scholastic Achievement Test - A standardized test that is given in many countries. This test is considered by many western universities in their admissions process. This is usually taken during the junior (11th) or senior (12th) year.</p>
<h2>Thai Classes</h2>
<p>When families apply to CRICS, they must choose at that time if they are applying as a Thai student or a foreign student (identified based on the passport used) for the duration of the student’s enrollment at CRICS. Those students enrolled as Thai students must comply with Thai law to have Thai classes five times per week throughout their enrollment at CRICS. Those students enrolled as foreign students will be required to comply with the CRICS foreign student expectation for Thai classes (which is in compliance with Thai law).</p>

<h1>Parent &amp; Teacher Communication</h1>
<h2>Student Planners</h2>
<p>Students in grades 6-10 will use a planner in every class during the school day. Please check this planner for assignments, calendar events, due dates for large projects, notes from teachers, and more. This is our most consistent communication tool. Let’s make it count for our kids!</p>

<h2>Elementary Smart Phone/Smart Watches Use</h2>
<p>At CRICS, we are committed to fostering an environment that supports focused learning, student safety, the protection of personal property, and meaningful face-to-face interactions. In keeping with these goals, elementary students are not permitted to have cell phones or smartwatches (e.g., Apple Watches) in their possession during the school day without special permission, including while on field trips.</p>
<p>Students may not carry or store cell phones or smart watches in backpacks, desks, or on their person during school hours. If a student requires a cell phone after leaving campus, a parent must either meet with the elementary administrator or provide written consent in advance.</p>
<p>If permission is granted, the phone must be turned in to the student’s homeroom teacher at the beginning of the school day and may be collected at the end of the day. The parent or student is responsible for this process.</p>
<p>Smartwatches are not permitted if they are capable of communication (calls, messages) or gaming. If a student is found using a smartwatch for these functions, the device will be confiscated until a parent is notified.</p>
<p>We understand that parents may occasionally need to contact their child during the school day. In such cases, communication can be facilitated through the front office or the homeroom teacher. Similarly, if a student needs to contact a parent, they may do so with the support of their teacher or the front office.</p>
<h1>Discipline</h1>
<h2>General Expectations</h2>
<p>It is the responsibility of each teacher to maintain a classroom that is safe and conducive to learning for all children. However, students are also responsible for following the guidelines that the teacher establishes for the classroom.</p>
