Today was our Last Day of TGFD's with Deputy Seward. Thank you for you time and information. See you at graduation!!!
Next week we are taking ISAT tests. I am sending you the schedule so you know in advance the testing times. Please make sure your student is here on time. This is a test with an allotted time.
A good night's rest and a healthy breakfast help students perform better too!
If anyone would like to send in a healthy snack for the class during any of these days, that would be fine. (fruit snacks, yo-gurts, string cheese, water, mint gum (while testing), etc....
Thanks!
