STAAR Interim Assesments, 3rd-8th Grade
Our 3rd-8th grade students will be taking the STAAR Interim tests this week. These tests will help measure student's academic growth. All our classrooms have been working extremely hard, please encourage your child to show what they know and to do their best.
PK-8 Fundraiser - Will you help us raise some "dough" for our school?
Our PK-8 coyotes will be selling Krispy Kreme cards to help fundraise for student and teacher incentives. Your contribution helps us purchase items such as books for our Book vending machine, science lab consumable materials, Attendance Awards, Reading Awards, and incentives for our PBIS store.
Stop by the front office to purchase your Krispy Kreme card. More details found below.
PK-8 Attendance
We take a lot of pride in our attendance at our school. Please help us maintain it at 98%!
1. When your child is absent, please send the doctor's note or parent note within 48 hours.
2. Tardy Bell rings at 8:05 am. A student will receive a tardy slip every time they arrive late.
3. When your child is absent, please expect a phone call from our front office or your child's teacher to ensure that your child is ok.
We're Ready for a Great Week!
