Eastside Elementary
April Newsletter 2024
From the Principal
Happy April!
I hope everyone enjoyed the time off over spring break. We are in the home stretch…only two months of school left, and we all still have lots of work to do.
Below are a few updates for the month of April.
Attendance
Student attendance is always crucially important. Put simply, if students aren’t in school, they’re not learning the content necessary to be prepared for the next level. With it being the end of the year, each grade level covers a lot of skills and content over the next couple months. Please be sure your child(ren) are not missing unnecessary days of school.
WY-TOPP
We are gearing up for our end-of-the year assessments. The testing window for WY-TOPP is April 16th through May 10th. Grades 3 through 5 will be taking these assessments in the areas of reading and math. 4th grade will also be taking a science test as part of WY-TOPP. This is a celebration for our students to show how much they’ve learned! Tune in for info from your child’s classroom teacher on specific testing days and times.
PTK
Our PTK meets the first Thursday of each month. April’s meeting is Thursday, April 4th at 3:30. Childcare is provided. We encourage all parents to attend!
We appreciate the support from our families in ensuring that all Eastside students learn at high levels.
Here’s to another great month at Eastside!
