Happy Mother's Day! It is definitely a busy time of year! From Spring activities to testing season, we are now celebrating the end of a wonderful school year! It is so hard to believe that we have 10 days of school left in this 24-25 school year! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, and these last 10 days are extra special for your Shark! Being part of a school community where we work hard and celebrate success is what it is all about! Don't forget 4th grade still has SC Ready Science test on Tuesday, and our 4th/5th graders go on their overnight field trip to Space camp next week! See below for more end-of-year happenings! We are so thankful for each of you!

Committed to Success,

Heather Touchberry
