K-5 Assessment Countdown
Attendance
In the weeks after school’s spring break and the Easter and fiesta holidays, drops in attendance are common. Remember that coming to school on time every day is very important. Also, please know that allergies are not a reason to stay home from school. You can call and talk to our nurse who is prepared to help students with chronic illnesses like asthma. We still have lots of learning to do to prepare your children for end of year assessments. These assessments will be good indicators if your child is prepared for the next school year. Please be sure your children come to school on time every day. Only students with 96% Perfect Attendance are eligible to participate in the Foam Party on May 24th!
