STAAR Testing
Parents: Next week on April 9th and April 10th, our students will be STAAR and STAAR Sim testing. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we will have a closed campus (no deliveries, lunch visitations, etc).
There will be no extra curricular activities Monday afternoon, Tuesday, and/or Wednesday. Please remind students to not bring cell phones and other electronics (except for Chromebooks), as these are prohibited by the state in testing rooms. Thank you for your teamwork as we prepare our students for their state assessments.”

ATTENDANCE
STUDENT LUNCH DROP OFF
Parents, we have a large amount of lunches that are being dropped off each day. Due to the volume of lunches and calling students to the office we are asking that you please follow the guidelines below. We appreciate your help with this matter as we want to ensure all students receive their lunches in a timely manner as well as maintain safety. Have a great weekend and Go Hawks.
1) Communicate with your student before school on days you plan to bring a lunch.
2) Students will be responsible for coming to pick up the lunch directly from you in the front office. (The office will not be holding lunches or sending for students. As a reminder, students are allowed to check their messages between classes.)
