 Principal Update Testing season is quickly approaching and I want to make sure our 3rd-5th grade students have multiple opportunities to prepare for the new PARCC test. Click here for information, practice tests and more. Please keep in mind the weeks of March 9th and March 16th when scheduling appointments and vacations as all students are expected to be present during testing. Also, please remember that students cannot be dropped off earlier than 8:40am (8:30am for breakfast at door 15) unless they are in Band, Spanish, or Kaleidoscope. Pick up time is 3:45pm unless a student is staying for Enrichment or Kaleidoscope. Prompt arrival, not only on the testing dates, will make for a stronger daily educational experience for your child.

*At the end of each month we will be donating all clothing in the lost and found and anything left in the halls(all clothing will go into our little red school house in our parking lot).
