The Weekly Update #4

We hope all of our Central Bobcats and their families are enjoying their time off for Spring Break. Keep making memories and enjoying your time together.

When we return from Spring Break on Monday, April 7th, we will find ourselves in the last stretch of the school year. This is a time of wrapping up our learning, assessing our knowledge, and celebrating a great school year. Please read on to be up-to-date, use our school website and Facebook for current information, and make sure you check your email for updates.

Beginning on April 7th, the window for MSTEP testing begins for our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. All three grade levels will show us what they have learned in Math and Reading, and our 5th graders will also show off their knowledge in Science and Social Studies. Additionally, we will be completing our NWEA testing beginning April 28th. Below you will find our testing schedule for April and May. This calendar reflects MSTEP testing and NWEA for 3rd-5th grade. We will be doing our best to adhere to this schedule, so please keep these dates in mind when scheduling appointments for your children.

Here are some ways to help support your students through these final assessments of the year.

As a reminder, if there are going to be changes to your student(s) after school routine, please make sure to contact the office prior to 2:30. If you contact the teacher directly, we still recommend you call the office so that we are able to follow up and ensure your student gets to where they need to be.

If you are picking your child up early, it is best practices to call the office to let them know you are on your way. This way we can have your child ready when you arrive. If you do not call and arrive after 2:45, there is no guarantee that we will get your child to you in a timely manner. With classes packing up and preparing for the end of the day, it can be a very hectic time to pick up students.

We appreciate your understanding and team work!
