Spirit Wear Sales

We had SO many requests for parent purchase of our new t-shirts that we will offer them in the regular spirit wear order this year. We'll also offer last year's maroon Leader in Me shirts as well. Stay tuned for that...

W.I.G. (Wildly Important Goal) #1: 97.3% Attendance Daily W.I.G. (Wildly Important Goal) #1: 97.3% Attendance Daily

We met our goal all three days last week!
  • Wednesday: 100%
  • Thursday: 99.1%
  • Friday: 98.86%

We have set three WIGs this year. One for attendance, one for math proficiency, and one for reading proficiency. We've started tracking our attendance goal.

Last year's attendance was 96.8%. Our highest since we've been open is 97.3% so we're aiming for that again.

If you're not here, you're not learning. If you're not learning, we're not making an impact. Be here on time every day you can!!
