As we move into the final stretch of the school year, I want to take a moment to recognize the hard work and dedication of our students, staff, and families. Spring Break is just around the corner, running from March 31 through April 4, and it provides a well-deserved opportunity for everyone to rest, recharge, and spend quality time with family. I hope you all take this time to relax and return refreshed for the busy weeks ahead.
Following Spring Break, our focus will shift to state assessments, an important opportunity for students to demonstrate their academic progress. Building principals will be communicating testing schedules and details to families, so please keep an eye out for updates.
Morrice Elementary will host the annual Kindergarten Family Night on April 10, an exciting opportunity for incoming kindergarten students and their families to learn more about our school community.
Thank you for your continued support of our schools. As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions.
Go Orioles!
