STAAR Surprise for Our Students
Thank You
Thank you to everyone for making last week's testing run as smoothly as possible. Jenny did an amazing job in her new role as testing coordinator, and everyone came together to help our students have the best testing environment possible!
Thank you to everyone involved with TELPAS. On top of everything else going on, you've had work samples to collect, training and testing to be a verifier, etc. I appreciate the extra time you've put in to make sure everything was completed. A big thank you to Jenny for organizing the online testing that took place!
Thank you to all staff who supported the field trips to SRC--Courtney, Kelli B., Joyce and Pam Redd! A big thanks to all of our teachers who accompanied the students. I've heard many stories of bravery (aka- holding snakes)!!
Thank you to everyone who participated in the "You've been egged!" activity. I hope you enjoyed your "eggcouraging" note from a fellow staff member!
