We had approximately 40 families come to our Kindergarten Round Up on Friday. Please encourage your neighbors who have kindergarten students to come to the school to pick up a registration packet if they haven't done so yet!
This week our 4th and 5th grade students will continue with their FSA Testing. Please make sure that students are in school and on time. 4th grade students will be taking an ELA test which is a reading test and our 5th grade students will be taking their science test. Please make sure they are here to test with their class each day.
Dental cleanings will begin this week for students whose parents completed the forms agreeing to the cleaning. If you missed a chance to send in the form, a "Second Chance" form will be coming home this week as well. Don't miss this opportunity to have your child's teeth cleaned and sealed.
Report cards are coming home on Thursday, please look it over, sign the envelope, and return it to your child's teacher.
