April Newsletter
April is here!
April is here and we may start having some warmer days. On the warmer days when you may have your children wear shorts, please remember to check for the length of the shorts. Many children have grown taller from last summer and now shorts they used to wear are too short. The general rule is if the child puts their arms and hands down, their shorts should come below their fingers. We appreciate your help.
Testing Dates
April is the month of our state mandated testing. Our first and second grade students will be taking the ITBS from April 5th - 7th. Our 4th grade students will be taking the ACT Aspire on April 18th & 19th. The third grade students will be taking the ACT Aspire on April 20th and 21st. Please make sure your child is at school and on time on these dates.
Walk-a-Thon
Our spring fund raiser will be a Walk-a-Thon. We will be able to take our students to the Cabot High School Stadium and let students walk the track. The Walk-a-Thon will be Friday, April 22nd. We will be sending home letters and an envelope with a pledge sheet soon. The Walk-a-Thon is a fun experience for our students. We appreciate your help with our spring fund raiser.
Future Events
Next month will be a very busy month for us. The first week will be honoring our teachers with Teacher Appreciation Week. The second week in May is our Fitness Frenzy Week.
