Students have worked hard taking EOG tests this week, we are proud of them! All students were able to bring home a new free book today thanks to your support with the Books Are Fun event. Several students won prizes from the PBIS raffle drawings today. Next week is the last week of school but we have Field Day adventures still to come on Wednesday and Thursday. This weekend is a three day weekend due to the Memorial Day holiday. We will see students on Tuesday, May 26th.

Students are still working hard as we countdown the final weeks of school. 3rd and 4th grade students will be taking End of Grade tests on May 19th and May 20th. Please help us to encourage all students to be on their best behavior and keep working hard.
We have a few incentives such as earning red PAWSOME tickets for meeting expectations. The tickets are chances to win prizes such as free ice cream, scooters, Legos, etc.
Field Day is a special two-hour outdoor celebration the last week of school, so we encourage all students to be respectful, responsible, and ready to learn so they can enjoy the full FUN! Students can earn their chance to participate in Field Day by showing positive behavior and meeting expectations in PE, Art, Music, Library, and Guidance classes. Each student starts with the word “FUN” and every time expectations are not met, they will lose one letter. If a student loses two letters, they will miss part of Field Day. If all three letters are lost, they will not be able to participate in Field Day.
It's hard to believe the school year is almost over! It brings us joy to see our students experience success and grow academically each year.
