Greetings from Groveport Elementary
April 12, 2024
Principal Message
Dear Groveport Elementary Families,
TESTING STARTS NEXT WEEK - 1st Round of State Testing is ELA (English Language Arts). All 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students will be taking the English Language Arts Ohio State Assessments next week. It is very important for your child to do their best on the test. Teachers will be using an effort rubric and students will be able to earn raffle tickets for meeting the effort criteria to win some big prizes (32 inch TV, Stanley Cups, $100 Amazon Gift Card, etc.).
Here are a few things you can do to help them.
1. Keep a positive attitude about tests.
2. Mark test days on your calendar so you can give your child a pep talk that morning!
3. Make sure your child gets enough sleep the night before the test.
4. Make sure your child gets up early enough so that he/she will be on time to school and won't feel rushed.
We have learned so much this school year and look forward to our students having the opportunity to show how much they've grown!
Here are the testing dates so you can put them on your calendar.

April 16th and 17th = ELA Part 1 and 2

Check out the letter from Artsonia congratulating our students, our art program, and Mrs. Sperk. Mrs. Sperk and the students, have collectively contributed to an online gallery surpassing 25,000 works of art. Along with all of the art projects posted, we've had over 450 comments from families this school year sharing their pride and support for their students' artwork. That's exciting!
