NEWS FROM DR. COOPER
Dear Families,
Students started their Winter MAP testing this week. Our teachers use these reading & math assessments to guide their instruction and help students measure their growth. Students' reports will be available in ParentVue in January.
Join us for Family Ornament Night tonight from 5:30-7:00. Some families have pre-ordered their ornaments but you can drop in and select ornaments. Cash or check will be accepted for payment.
The Lost & Found is overflowing. Stop by to look if your child might be missing something. We will donate everything over Winter Break to clear out our bin for the 2nd semester.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Dr. Tara Cooper
