Wiggin Street Parent Update
March 15, 2024
Congratulations to our Battle of the Books Team on their 1st Place Win!
Better Together
Dear Wiggin Street Families,
Luckily, the weather has held up for our students to get outside this week! It started to get cold today, so don't forget to send coats with students next week. If you can't find them, they might be in our Lost and Found. Check out the pictures in this update, because items will be donated over Spring Break.
Mrs. Springer and Mr. Evans will be hosting our PBIS 3rd Quarter Dance Party Reward next Wednesday. Students still have time to earn some more points. Next week will end for students on Thursday which is the end of the 3rd nine weeks. There is no school on Friday, the 22nd, due to teachers having a Teacher Work Day.
All students trying out for the Talent Show must sign up for an audition by next Thursday. Tryouts are April 3rd and April 10th. Students will have time to practice over Spring Break which is March 25th- April 1st, and we will return on April 2nd.
Have a wonderful weekend, and Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
Best wishes,
Christy Grandstaff

Grades 3-5 Ohio State Testing Dates
Please keep these dates in mind when scheduling appointments for April. Make-up testing takes some of our educators away from intervention instruction, so we like to limit it as much as possible.
3rd-5th Grade ELA Ohio State Test: April 17 & 18
5th Grade Science Ohio State Test: April 23 & 24
3rd-5th Grade Math Ohio State Test: April 30 & May 1
This site for students and families has lots of great information about the state test and 3rd grade Reading Guarantee as well as practice tests.
