AIR Testing 

ELA AIR Testing continues this week.  Here is a link to the testing schedule.  If you are not proctoring a test, please be sure to stand in the hallways between classes to keep the noise level down.

Specials Teachers....please check with your grade level teams to see which students are testing on which days.

We had a great first week of testing!  Keep up the good work

EMS Experience Night

Just a friendly reminder, EMS Experience Night is April 8th (6:00-7:30).  For those of you running a club/team, please ask a couple of your students to attend to be representatives.  

The event will start with a quick presentation in the gym.  After the presentation, students and parents will be permitted to walk around the building.  

Tables will be set up in the hallways throughout the building.  For those of you running a club, we will set your table(s) up near your classroom.
