It’s hard to believe we’re already in the last six weeks of school! There's still so much happening, and we’re excited to finish the year strong—together. As always, attendance remains a top priority—every day truly counts! To celebrate our students’ hard work and commitment, we’ll be hosting a fun celebration with inflatables for those who have perfect attendance during this last stretch-the last 6 weeks. Let’s keep showing up, supporting one another, and making these last weeks the best yet!

One STAAR test done, 2 more remain! This week is our 5th graders turn taking the Science test on Wednesday, April 15th.

• A few reminders for our 5th graders for WEDNESDAY:
• Get a good night's sleep, being well-rested helps the brain stay sharp.
• Eat a healthy breakfast to fuel your focus.
• NO backpacks needed
• Leave cell phones and smartwatches at home if possible.
• Be on time.
• Lunch will be in the testing classroom, and microwaves will not be accessible, please plan accordingly. All students can have a cafeteria lunch plate at no cost!

Remember to repeat the powerful words that we have been practicing and manifesting as a school family. Every day, I would love for you to say this with them---look them in the eyes and have them repeat after you:

"I am capable, I am strong, I am ready."

Parents,

As of last week, this is Shary’s current registration percentage for next school year. If you haven’t registered your child yet, we kindly ask that you do so as soon as possible.

Early registration is incredibly important—it helps us plan for the right number of classrooms, teachers, and supplies needed to give our students the best possible start in August. Accurate registration numbers ensure we don’t risk losing valuable resources or staff based on lower projections.

Thank you for helping us prepare and continue providing a high-quality learning environment for all students.

Take a moment to look at the attached flyer with information about the City of Mission’s Autism Awareness Event in honor of Autism Awareness Month.

We are proud of our community's dedication in celebrating neurodiversity and continuing to promote a culture of understanding, inclusion, and acceptance for all.

We hope you and your family can take part in this meaningful event. 💙

The 5th six weeks ended on Friday, April 11, and we will now be reviewing attendance records to prepare for our Perfect Attendance Field Trip! 🎉 Students who earned perfect attendance during the 5th six weeks will be visiting the Recycling Center on Tuesday, April 22nd.

Permission slips will be sent home soon, so please keep an eye out for them. We’re excited to celebrate our students’ commitment to showing up and learning every day!

Parents,

We know many of you have been asking, so we're happy to share the details for our End-of-Year Awards Ceremonies! 🎉

Please see the information below and mark your calendars—we look forward to celebrating your child’s hard work and accomplishments together!
