The students have worked very hard all year long to “Show What They Know” and “Do Their Personal Best on the Test”. 

We need your help to support their efforts in the following ways:

  • Please make sure your child arrives on time and is not absent each day – this includes kinders and first graders  J
  • Please make sure your child has a healthy breakfast at home or in the cafeteria each day
  • Please make sure your child has plenty of sleep the night before
  • Please make sure you allow plenty of time in the mornings so that students arrive alert and in the “best of moods”

 

Each child who is NOT absent and who DOES their personal best will receive a special treat at the end of each week of testing.  The treat will also go to Kinders and First graders who are on time and not absent each day.

Thank you so much for your support.
