March is Reading Month! 📖
MARCH IS READING MONTH IS HERE! We are going to "pop in to some good books" and try to read 100,000 minutes as a school by the end of the month! There will be AMAZING prizes raffled out throughout the month to those who are helping us get to our goal and we are looking forward to a super fun celebration of reading all month long, so keep an eye out in your child's folder for more information after break!

M-Step Testing is Coming!
😀 Make sure your student is going to be early before a testing day! This will ensure they are well rested and ready to perform their best!
😀 Encourage students to reading all of the directions before beginning. The directions for the test will tell them exactly what they need to know for each section of the test.
😀 Remind students to pace themselves! They should take all of the time they need to complete the assignment.
🚨 IMPORTANT:There are no cell phones or electronic watches allowed anywhere in the classroom while testing. We will be collecting them during M-Step testing, if brought to school. Once they are collected they will be clearly labeled and stored in a locked closet. The M-Step testing window will begin April 10th and ends on May 19th!
