We are seeking used magazine donations to support creative and educational art projects throughout the school year. Students will use photos from the magazines for activities such as dream boards, magazine mosaics, science collages, and other hands-on classroom projects.
We welcome all types of magazines, including Zoo News, Home & Garden, Tech & Science, Travel, etc. Donations can be dropped off at the front office with Ms. Dessy anytime through the end of the school year. Thank you!
This week, our 5th and 8th graders will take the Science CAASPP assessment. Testing will take place the first hour of each morning when our students are freshest.
Please be sure that your child arrives to school on time and has a healthy breakfast to start the day and try not to check them out during that first hour.
