Our first through fifth graders have been busy this week taking our standardized tests. We took the CTP test that is a part of ERB. Tests were given online, and results are given quickly. These results will be included in your child’s final report card that will be handed out at awards day during the last week of school.

Kindergarten is gearing up for graduation! They look so grown up in their caps and gowns. The display of their pics in frames makes me a little happy and a little sad as I walk by! They are growing up fast! Our Kindergartners will enjoy breakfast with our Seniors next Wednesday, and we will also have our annual parade of graduates following the breakfast
