As we get closer to Spring Break, it is time to inform you of our Smarter Balanced Assessment dates. This is our state standardized assessment that students in Grades 3-5 will take in May. Your child’s attendance is incredibly important during this time.

Early dismissal should be no later than 3:00 pm on (M,T,TH,F), and 1:00 pm on (W.) Our office is very busy at this time of day and we may not be able to get your student.

Parent partnership and family engagement are crucial components of the Title I, Part A program. If your child participates in the Title Reading or Math program, we would greatly appreciate your feedback and ideas for how we can continue to make the program even better. The survey is open until the end of the day on April 3.
This month’s focus is Honesty. One way to think about Honesty is “being truthful in what you say and do.” Practicing Honesty helps strengthen our relationships and reduce stress. Honesty is 1 of 3 traits we will focus on throughout the year that helps students Be Well. Throughout school, students will be developing skills like emotion regulation, positive self-talk, and stress-management.
