Building Leaders of Tomorrow
From the Principal's pen...
We are halfway through April and we have a three day weekend to get some rest! Thank you for observing our closed campus for STAAR testing this week, as our Patriots worked really hard. Next week we will have a CLOSED CAMPUS to visitor's on Tuesday and Thursday due to Math and Science STAAR testing. If you have a 3rd-5th grader please make sure they are in attendance on their testing days.
At the end of this month, we have our monthly spirit night at Inspire Youth Sports. It's a parents night out Nerf Night! This is one of our favorite family events and we hope you can make it (see details below). Have a great 3 day weekend and we will see everyone on Monday!
Thank you for partnering with us and we are blessed to serve,
Brett Shelby
