A Message from Mrs. Lowery
It is hard to believe we are well into the spring semester! We have so many fun activities for our students this semester! There are many important dates below including Field Day, our Bison Time Showcase, STAAR Testing Dates, and soon we'll be talking about End of the Year Celebrations! It is also a time to order your yearbook and nominate a volunteer of the year!
We are proud of the gains our students are making academically, behaviorally and in finding things they are passionate about. Make plans to attend the Bison Showcase on the 24th if you can. You'll be able to see what your 3rd, 4th and 5th graders have been working on, and be able to support this philanthropic efforts. Many of our groups will be selling items and donating the money to area charities.
I'll be hosting another Principal's Coffee on April 20th. I'd love to hear your suggestions for 2017-2018!
