Mrs. Gerik's Update
Tomorrow, our 3rd graders take their Reading STAAR! Please make sure students get a good night's sleep so they will be well-rested in the morning. Students should also eat breakfast and be on time for school.
We believe in you, 3rd graders! You've got this! 🤩
Important Dates this week:
- Wednesday: Spring Pictures
- Thursday: Kona Ice
- Friday: Non-Instructional Day
Cadet PRIDE
Our students focus on 5 areas throughout the school day to ensure they have a productive day. We call this Cadet PRIDE.
Students who show exceptional behavior in any of these areas can receive a shout-out from anyone on campus.
PREPARED--How ready are you?
RESPECT--How do you treat others and your school?
INTEGRITY--Who are you when nobody is looking?
DISCIPLINE--Are you following the rules?
EFFORT--Are you being your best self?
STAAR Information
APRIL 16TH: STAAR READING
MAY 1ST: STAAR MATH
As we get closer to STAAR, parents unfamiliar with the new STAAR Redesign should take the time to explore the changes. You can visit the TEA website on STAAR Redesign for more information. On this website, your student can take a practice test, and you have access to released test questions from previous years.
One of the biggest ways you can support your child with STAAR is by having them practice typing since they will be taking the STAAR online. TypeTastic is a free online typing program that your student can use while at home.
