As we plan for another successful Spring Carnival we're looking for some donations. This year, we're asking for donations of ice, water bottles, drinks (juice or cans of soda), brown paper bags, hot dogs, hot dog rolls, ketchup, mustard, and napkins. If anyone has a cooler we can borrow during the carnival to keep the drinks cold, we'd appreciate a few of those too. Please let Heiser or Moyer know if you plan to donate. Thanks for helping to make this a great carnival!!
Upcoming EL Assessments
The ELD team will be administering the end of year WIDA MODEL assessment and reclassifying eligible EL students from May 16th - May 25th.
