State testing is over!

Our 7th and 8th graders completed their ACAP state testing this week. We are looking forward to seeing how much our students improved from last year. The students and teachers have been working hard all year for this moment.

Thank you to those who purchased Jack's biscuits for our 7th & 8th graders this week for ACAP testing: Curtis Baker, Jason Cummings, and Mount Hebron Baptist Church. We appreciate the support of our school and our students.
