PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Hello Falcon Families,
Our first round of testing for grades 3-5 went very well. Next week grades 5-8 will complete their testing so please make sure your children are well rested and prepared to do their best.
Mr. Walter’s students put on a great show Thursday night! It’s always wonderful to watch our talented Falcons put on such a great performance. Thank you to everyone that assisted and came out to see the show. This week we have our Middles School Orchestra Spring Concert. I am sure it will be another magnificent event!
Have a great week!
Jason Fritz
