Week of May 8-12th

We will begin our Spring DRA testing this week. This will be the third and final time for this assessment. The students have shown great growth from Fall to Winter and I know it will be the same for the Spring test.

State testing for grades 3-5 is scheduled for May 9-11, May 17-19. Although second grade is not testing, our schedule will be slightly off. (Our lunch time should still remain the same.)

You should have received a note in your child's folder about our Fairy Tale Production, including the date and time we are scheduled to present. Parts will be given out this week and I will let you know what help we need with costumes/props.

The registration process has begun for the 2017-2018 school year. Please visit the school website or the district website for more information.
