reminders
We have a science DCA#3 on Tuesday, May 4th. We have one week left before our STAAR tests. We are practicing and building the stamina for the upcoming tests. We know our students were working hard throughout the year and will be ready to show their skills and knowledge.
In-person and Online Instructions
Our priority is providing the best instructions possible to our students. This school year has been like no other. We would like our virtual students to continue completing all assigned work in Schoology and being present in Zoom live classes.
I-Station and I-Ready
Students are required to have at least 90 minutes of I-Station per week and at least 75 min of I-Ready per week. We see a lot of students who have 0 minutes in both. Please encourage your students to use these great programs to continue developing their comprehension and math skills.
