Wildcat Weekly Updates:  Week of March 29th

Good Afternoon Wildcat Families,

Report cards were posted in Infinite Campus last Thursday.  Please be sure to log into Infinite Campus and review your child’s progress.  

We are now into the fourth nine weeks and this is our last week before  Spring Break so let's finish with strong attendance. Strong attendance helps students build positive habits, strong relationships, and academic confidence.  Last week our attendance rate was just under 94 %.  We need your help to make sure all of our students are here each day and on time. Remember if your child is out that you need to submit an absence note using the link on the school website.  All students should be in class by 7:50.  

Our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students will be participating in Check In Testing this week.  

4th and 5th grade choir participants will not practice this week due to testing.
