Dear Parents,
This has been a very trying year for all of us. We have worked hard to keep students and staff safe and will continue to do so throughout the remainder of the school year.
Teachers have been working to prepare students for the upcoming STAAR test. The 7th graders will be taking the writing test on Tuesday, April 6th. Please remind your students whether they are face to face or connect, they are expected to be on campus April 6th if they are in 7th grade. Please review the info the counselors added below for ideas on how to prepare your child for the day of the test.
Thank you for everything you do to help your child be successful here at Truitt.
Sincerely,
Yvette Garcia
