Spartan Weekly Update

Beautiful Week...
Happy Weekend Spartan Families:
We hope you enjoyed the beautiful, flip-flop worthy, weather this week! Thank you for all of the support making the mandatory IAR testing run smoothly.
As we head into the weekend, it is hard to believe we are gearing up for the final 8 weeks of the school year. We still have so many wonderful experiences in store for all of our students, and we are especially excited to send our 8th graders off to high school with wonderful memories of their time at Shepard.
We hope you find some time for a grill-out session, a backyard fire or a family hike as you enjoy the warm weather on Saturday!
Have a wonderful weekend.
