Dear Families,

   Just a reminder that our 4th-grade Biography/Region program will be next Wednesday, April 24th from 1:00-3:00. We welcome families to come and see all of the different presentations. It will be an open house format. Your child will be in his/her classroom, cafeteria or Media Center. The presentations will be no more than five minutes. You are welcome to walk around and listen to as many presentations as you like.
     Below are the important testing dates coming up in May for NWEA and M-Step. Please mark your calendars and try to have your child in school on these days. We are allowing shorter testing times and more breaks along with gum chewing:) When students are absent it is more difficult to give them the same breaks and students do not get the same quiet areas because everyone else could be finished. It's more difficult and could effect their score because of the limitations we have in the classroom. Thank you for your understanding.
Have a great week!
