Sherwood Updates
Thank you all for another fantastic week at Sherwood!
This week students and staff have been actively participating in our Respect Booster which is designed to support the ongoing implementation of our Panda STARS program. Students are being recognized for showing respect all over the building and we will continue to pay extra close attention next week. We will recognize students who are showing respect by passing out special purple Panda STARS!
We ask that parents and guardians support this endeavor by asking your child(ren) how they are showing respect at Sherwood. The success of this program is directly related to support and enthusiasm that we see from students, staff, and parents. Thank you for supporting Sherwood!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Panda Pride,
Rachel & Kevin

IAR Tests 4/11-4/14
Continuing on Monday (4/11), students will begin taking the IAR test in grades 3-5. Please have your students get a good night's rest and eat a healthy breakfast to give them the energy and stamina they will need.
All make-up tests will be completed throughout the week.
We would also like to encourage parents with students in K-2 to have a conversation at home about how to best support their fellow pandas by being mindful when in the halls, lunchroom, bathrooms, etc. Thank you!!
