Affirmation of the Week
I am proud of the academic progress we have made. I use positive self-talk to build the confidence of my students. I inspire them to question, dream, and achieve.

Testing Updates
- Updated test examiner and proctor assignments will be provided this week. However, all certified staff should be prepared for any changes that may occur.
- Ms. Phillips has emailed technology protocols this week. Technology availability will be limited in order to prepare for GMAS.
- Make sure you read the examiner manual prior to testing.

GMAS PRIZE!
Each grade level had the same question: Does the grade level with the highest growth win a prize?
YES.
Details coming soon. Good luck!
Critical Days
I know we've all worked hard, but it is imperative that we are all present in the next few weeks. Just as we feel the pressure of testing, so do our students. They need us to be present and positive. Hang in there!
