Hello ROYALS!
Enjoy the last days of spring break and know that we are looking forward to having students back in the building to finish this school year strong!
Quarter 4 reset assemblies
When we return from spring break, we will be having grade level assemblies to reset some student expectations and address some trends that we are seeing. We will report all major talking points to you in our March 31 newsletter.
Quarter 3 awards
Between the busyness of spring break and CMAS, we will be doing Quarter 3 awards online. Watch for our slideshow on April 4 recognizing our students for their hard work. The slideshow will be posted on our website and on our Facebook page.
CMAS information
Here's the general schedule for our students for CMAS testing.

Parents can opt their student out by filling out this form. One needs to be filled out for each student attending Quist. Students who opt out of testing will spend most of the day quietly reading and doing quiet independent work but will be able to attend their explore classes and lunch/recess with their peers. Students may also be excused from attending school on those days but parents will still be required to call the attendance line to report those absences.
On behalf of the ROYALS Community,
