Families: the county has made us aware that testing scores for the writing portion of the state test may not immediately show up on the portal. These scores can take up to 10 business days to show up.
We will begin state testing tomorrow. Please make sure your students get good sleep and come to school on time the rest of this week! We are excited to see all that students have learned this year!
We want to thank everyone who donated their time, money, and/or resources last week to make our Teacher Appreciation Amazing Race event a success! Please know how much we appreciate all the assistance in pulling this event off! We held our prize raffles today - every staff member received a small prize, and we had 8 big prize winners!
Today was our "Student Sprint" leg of the Amazing Race! Students volunteered their time to thank teachers during breakfast, helped decorate the conference room with thank you notes and candy, and then led the Four Seasons Spa during lunch rotations. Thanks to Patsy Adkins and Sonic for bringing our staff drinks, and thanks to Buffalo Playmates for providing Rocky Tops pizza for lunch!
