- Parents - Though we want to see as many students as possible pass their tests, the most important thing is that we help them grow. We want all of our students to be learners and to be successful. In order to make sure this happens, we ask that students work hard and try their best. It is not about test scores, but about growth, learning, and encouraging a strong work ethic that will carry them into middle school, high school, and into adulthood. We appreciate your support with instilling this in our students and understanding that end of the year activities and events are rewards for working hard and trying their best.
