Falcon Flyer for Families!
April 7-April 11, 2025
Hello Falcon Families!
Congratulations to our Dual Language Immersion students who "showed what they know," on the STAMP test this week! If your student missed the test day, he/she will have an opportunity to make it up Monday.
We are approaching the "calm before the storm" of events before Spring Break as MAP testing for Sullivan students is quickly approaching. Other special activities are on the calendar, as well, including Night of the Arts, the district track meet, and the 8th grade DC trip.
Continue to study and work hard this week to finish classes strong! Don't forget to cheer on your Assistant Principal with a kind note or treat as it is "Assistant Principal Week!" We greatly thank them for all that they do for our students and school!
Sincerely,
Dr. Persinski

Falcons SOAR!
As Falcons, we don't want to just "meet the requirement" as student-athletes. We want to raise the bar! Coming soon will be new guidelines for all student-athletes, no matter the sport. Our Falcons will SOAR, and they will show their Falcon Pride through their academic excellence and sportsmanship.
S-Sportsmanship
O-Ownership
A-Academics and Attendance
R-Represent as Role Models
Falcons will be required to hold at least a C in classes; Bs and As are preferred. Should a student drop below a C in any class, then tutoring will be required instead of practice. Students will not be penalized for attending tutoring. Students are expected to attend school and meet attendance requirements, and they should show exemplary behavior in class.
Academics, attendance and behavior will be checked weekly.
As Falcons, we believe that Academics comes first, and student-athletes are role models for all. Falcons represent Sullivan as proud, outstanding student-athletes who will be ready to meet the next level of expectations in high school and beyond.
