Snack Opportunities...
Cinco De Mayo
Ole Ole Ole Ole Ole OLE!!!! OLE!!! Let’s have snacks to celebrate Cinco de Mayo next Friday (May 5th). J
Please sign up for the yummy snack list. We left items that people brought last year for ideas. Feel free to change them and partner up on items because it can get pricey.
STAAR Snacks
We know we are bringing snacks for Cinco de Mayo next week, but we would also like to continue the snack fest for STAAR testing the following week (it’s all about the food, right?). We have attached a link to sign up for snacks. There are three tabs at the bottom. Specials, please sign up for the first day (5/8),KG, 1st and 5th on the second day (5/9), and 2nd, 3rd and 4th on the third day (5/10).

All K – 5 math educators should have received an email this week from Exemplars.com with log in information. This resource has been purchased to provide additional content for our new curriculum documents, in the form of performance tasks. This resource will be embedded within our curriculum documents and professional learning will be provided to support the implementation in the fall. Educators interested in implementing this spring are welcome to do so. If educators have misplaced the email, they may go to exemplarslibrary.com, use their email address and the initial password: cisd200 to log in. If anyone is having difficulty logging in, please share this email address with them to troubleshoot: support@exemplars.com.
