STAAR testing begins next week. On days when your child is taking the STAAR test, you will not be able to eat lunch with them. I have listed the testing dates below as well as changes that will effect 5th grade lunch on April 16 and April 30.
Lunch Time Changes for April 16 and April 30:
5th grade will eat lunch from 11:35-12:05 on these two days
3rd grade will eat lunch from 12:45-1:15 on these two days. However, since students are testing on these days, please plan not to eat lunch with your 3rd grader on these days.
STAAR Testing Dates:
- April 15 -- 5th grade RLA
- April 16 -- 3rd and 4th grade RLA
- April 22 -- 5th grade Science
- April 29 -- 5th grade Math
- April 30 -- 3rd and 4th grade Math
We also will not be able to have volunteers upstairs on STAAR testing days. We can still have visitors and volunteers downstairs, as long as it is not in a grade level that is testing that day. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility.
If you have a child that will be 4 by September 1st and you are interested in having them attend Pre K in fall, please reach out to our Pre K teacher through email at Traci.McBain@pfisd.net for more information on the program and qualifications.
Come learn a dance with the Hendrickson High School Silver Dancer on May 3rd. Your child will learn a choreographed routine and have some fun with the Silver Dancers. Then dance that evening on stage with the Silver Dancers.
