Hello Stallions!
We had a great week back from Spring Break. It doesn't take long for everyone to return to the routines of school. The classrooms were busy with teachers reteaching expectations and reviewing the Ranch Rules. Third quarter grades posted to Infinite Campus on Thursday and our Student Council Spirit Day - College Day was a big success on Friday. We lost track counting the different schools represented! Thank you for supporting these school spirit building days!
If you haven't already, you will receive an email from Gilbert Public Schools asking you to complete a climate survey. I would encourage you to complete the survey as your responses give us feedback that helps us plan for the future. As always thank you for your support.
Beginning April 10 our students will start taking the AzMERIT state assessments. This year our students in grades 3-6 will take the computer-based version of the AzMERIT test. This is a change from previous years. Unlike in previous years, all the students won't be testing on the same days and times. We will be following a testing schedule that is available for viewing on the parent calendar on our school website.
I'm sharing this information now as I would encourage you to check out the calendar and make note of when your student(s) will be testing. It is important for students to be here on the days their grade will take the test. Please refrain from scheduling appointments on these days. More information will be shared about testing in the near future.
Just a reminder that the parent pick-up driveway is designed to allow for two lanes of vehicles to line up side-by-side awaiting students at dismissal. Please take turns allowing vehicles to merge into one lane at the right turn. We appreciate your assistance in making this an effective and efficient process.
