PRINCIPAL'S CORNER
Winter Playground Expectations -- Students have been doing a great job with these expectations! Great job remembering all outside snow gear.
Grades 3-5 will be involved in Forward Exam state testing toward the end of March and into April. Information will be sent home regarding testing dates but if you know you have a family vacation planned, please fill out the pre-excused absence form now so we can make arrangements for this testing. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's teacher or Mrs. Michalski.
Let school know if you have any questions or concerns. We are here to work together.
Mrs. Michalski
