Important Information

Teacher Appreciation Week

Thank you for your unwavering dedication, compassion, and commitment to our students every single day.  Your hard work, creativity, and resilience make a lasting impact in and beyond the classroom.  We are truly grateful for all that you do.  Happy Teacher Appreciation Week.


Northern Lights Assembly (May 9th, 2nd period)

Our annual Northern Lights Assembly will be in the gym on Friday.  Please make sure you sit in the bleachers and keep the student quiet.  I will call students down to the gym at the beginning of 2nd period.


Testing is Done

Thank you for everyone's hard work during testing.  I believe that all of our students took the test seriously and I am looking forward to seeing the results in a few weeks.  There are a handful of kids that need to complete make-up tests.  This will be done on Monday and Tuesday.


Gifted Training

Friendly reminder, core teachers, you must complete 5 hours of Gifted Training prior to the end of the school year.  Let me know if you need any coverage to get this completed.
