Weekly Update for Week of March 3rd Welcome Back! This week will be a testing week for our 2nd-5th graders. Testing will be Tuesday through Friday. They will take the district Reading and Math Assessment. This will be that last scrimmage prior to the final state assessment in May. We will be able to use the data to determine what benchmarks we need to remediate prior to the final assessment. We will start testing at 9am so please make sure everyone is present and on time each day! This is important because students seem to do better when they test with their class oppose to testing with a makeup. As a reward for being at school each day of testing (Perfect Attendance), we will hold a dance called an "Attend"Dance. Students will be invited on Friday afternoon and receive a snack and a juice. This event is free for kids. The only requirement is that they are at school each day. PreK will have a field trip on Tuesday. So please make sure they are on time. The bus will not wait due to the time they must be at the event. Please reach out to PreK teachers if you have any questions. Have a great rest of your weekend.
