Hi there! I hope that you are having a great weekend. I want to share the 
STAAR Testing schedule for this coming week.

-Third and Fourth grade students will take the STAAR Math on Monday and the STAAR Reading assessment on Tuesday.

Fifth grade will take their STAAR science assessment on Wednesday. 

-Make up assessments will be on Wednesday/Thursday and possibly Friday.

Reminders-
1. Visitors will not be allowed on campus during testing
2. FREE breakfast will be served on testing days.
3. Please have your children here at school on time.

Thank you for encouraging your children to do their best during the tests. Remind them to reread the questions, reread the passages, prove answers, and think carefully. Taking notes, underlining, highlighting, and drawing pictures can help understanding. Taking breaks is important.  They can put their head down, go to the bathroom, or have a snack to help them refocus and re-energize to keep working hard. 

I am more than confident that they are going to do well.  Thank you for all you help and support this year!
