NHS Announcement!
NHS applications went out to all scholars that were nominated. Parents please check in with your scholars about the requirements and due date, late or incomplete applications will not be accepted.

gearing up for the pssa!
We are 49 school days away from the PSSA tests! Our teachers and staff have been working diligently since the beginning of the year to prepare your scholars though aligned content and practice opportunities. Each year we roll out a theme to energize and build the confidence of our scholars. This year’s theme is, “Scholars, you are in control of the test!” We’ve started daily challenge questions for each grade to answer and race to the office with the correct answer during morning announcements. Teachers have incorporated PSSA questions into the daily practice of their classes. In April, we will have a pep rally, exciting scholars for the upcoming exams. Scholars know they do not need to be stressed, they simply need to show what they know. They are the ones in control. We are asking for your continued partnership in several ways:
- Daily at-home practice through IRLA steps and iReady
- Through talking with your scholar, build confidence and ease stress by reminding them of all they’ve learned
- Daily on-time attendance so they can receive instruction
We thank you for your support!
