Dear Parents,
Unless your child was absent and is doing "make-up" testing, we are officially done with the CAASPP. Thank you for making sure your child was at school each day on time and ready to go.
On a completely different note, we will be doing an art project soon in which the students will need an empty food box. This can range from a cereal box, a cracker box, a pasta box, a rice box, etc. The food doesn't matter. The sooner this comes in, the better. If you are able to send in more than one, please do. Boxes need to be in no later than Thursday, 5/21. Thank you in advance!
Mrs. McLoud
