Family Update

Happy Friday, Davis Families!

Well...are we all prepared for Snowmageddon this weekend?? It's Ohio so we may get 12-15 inches, or a brief gust of wind and a single flake. Either way, I hope you all stay safe and warm!

We have had several folks asking about the MAP score reports as students are finishing up the winter math MAP tests. Scores and score reports will be available to families in Infinite Campus after February 6.

Have a great weekend!

Go Irish!
