PLA@George H. Fisher School 93
Greetings PLA Families,
We are excited to welcome back our scholars this week after having time off for spring break! Our teachers and scholars are working hard to prepare for ILEARN testing. We will begin testing on Monday, April 18th. Be on the lookout for information about testing tips and preparation in next week's flyer.
Our 3rd grade scholars finished IREAD testing prior to spring break. The retest window will open for scholars on May 23rd for anyone that will need to retake the state assessment.
PLA@93 is excited to welcome Scouts back to our school. After school programming won't begin until next year, but Scouts is enrolling now for their summer programming and after school group. More information can be found below.
There is still time to register for Summer Advantage. The deadline has been extended for you to register your scholar and receive transportation to and from school. Registration with transportation will close on April 15th.
The spring Panorama Survey link has been placed below for your convenience. We welcome your feedback and encourage you to take a few minutes to complete this and let us know how we are doing. https://surveys.panoramaed.com/indianapolis/xfisher22/surveys. We use the feedback from this survey to guide us in setting goals to improve our school. The survey window will close on April 8th.
