Before and after school tutoring has ended for the year. The doors will open at 7:15AM at the earliest.
Our teachers and staff are looking for some volunteers to help us pack up the school in preparation for the refresh this summer. If you are willing to volunteer a little or a lot, please read the details and sign up on this Google Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FkV1JMD7gSO0Y84pZlvQkt4elAEZUotjl4P9gdSy0Ro/edit
Our PTO has partnered with 1st Day School Supplies to provide school supply packs for next school year. They are going to save us up to 30% over shopping at big box stores like Target, Walmart, and Amazon. Better yet, they are the undisputed leader in custom kitting school supplies, providing us with only brand names you trust and respect like Ticonderoga, Crayola, Elmer's and Clorox. Also, we found out if we sell 50 school supplies kits in April, we will be entered to win $2,5000 in FREE school supplies. So, what are you waiting for? Buy early and save!

Students will be taking the STAAR test on Tues. May 2, and Thurs. May 4. On those days, we ask that no visitors come to school for lunch or other reasons so that we can maintain a secure testing environment.
