Family Communication
Hello Otter families,
We begin intermediate state testing tomorrow, May 1st. Our campus is closed and will reopen for lunch visitors on May 16th. Especially for testing students need to be on time; if students come on campus after 9:40 students will not be allowed in the classroom to test. Students will be placed in another grade level room until their grade is done testing, and will need to make up the test at a different time.
Please share with your child a message from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers about testing by clicking here.
We appreciate our Otter families ensuring our students are set up for success.
Dr. Steinacker, Ms. Leahy, & Mrs. Natal

End of the Year Ceremonies
All adults must be signed in through our Raptor system anytime on campus. That includes for our end of the year events and ceremonies. To make the process faster for all and not to miss any parts of a ceremonies we are asking all adults to RSVP by Tuesday May 14th. If you do not RSVP by that time you would need to come to the front office to be scanned into the system on the day of the event.
Media Closure
The last day for the kids to check out media books was 4/26.
Please have your children return all of their borrowed books by May 13th.
