We have officially entered the testing season! We are excited for students to show what they know and what they have worked on all year. Although the STAAR test is not the end all be all, we encourage our students to do their very best on them! This is a great opportunity for them to practice the skills their teachers have taught them. It is always great when students can get a good night's sleep and can be focused on the day ahead.

Money can be added to student accounts at MySchoolBucks

Lunch Accounts and Balances

Letters will be going home with progress reports and reports cards for students with an negative lunch balance.

Our swings made their way onto our recess area last week and are ready to be used! We are grateful for all of the support that parents and our awesome PTO group have provided us with. This is a great move in the right direction for developing this area.

Grass and drainage support will be coming soon!
