Ready, Set, Test!
Team Columbia:
Testing Season is upon us. Students will be taking IB, AP, ACT, and Pre-ACT Exams during the next couple of weeks just before Senior and Final Exams.
We are having Field Day for each grade level this week. We will place tickets in the mailbox for students who are invited. The students not invited will follow their regular schedule.
Lastly, Monday is the last day to submit names for your Most Improved Student and for volunteers to be invited to the volunteer luncheon. Make sure you submit your names. Monday will be the absolute last day those surveys will be open.
Thanks for all you do!!
As always, have a great week of teaching and learning!!
