April 2025
Dear Dr. Green Families,
I hope you are having a wonderful month of April and planning your summer vacation. As you may already know, our students in grades 3-5 are due to take the reading, math and science STAAR tests this month as follows:
READING: Tuesday, April 8
SCIENCE: Thursday, April 17

Please ensure your children are well rested. Encourage them to believe in themselves and take the STAAR tests with great confidence using all strategies they have learned and practiced.
Today, we had an amazing time during a pep rally, our students were inspired and enjoyed the games played by them and their teachers. Pictures will be posted in our Facebook webpage.
We will be continuing with our STAAR preparation sessions during the Saturday Workshops. The next Saturday Workshops will continue on April 12, and 26 for grades 3-5, from 8:30 to 11:30 am.
