Principal's Message
We will begin our OST testing after Spring Break on April 9th. Please make sure your students chromebooks are charged and they are well rested. Students are not permitted to have their cell phones during the test. I am asking that students turn their phones off and placed away during testing. We do not want any students test to be invalidated.
Incentive Plan for 4th Quarter
For a reset after Spring Break we are implementing an incentive plan for good behavior that has a direct effect for our end of the year activities. You can see the plan here.
In the next coming week/s you will receive information for how we are going to reward students who are ALWAYS doing the right thing!
