CHARACTER EDUCATION This month, we will be talking about trustworthiness. Help us by having conversations about trustworthiness with your child. Share examples of how to be trustworthy and praise your child when he/she is trustworthy at home. It is so important that we build good character in our students. Together we can accomplish this goal. Thank you for your help. REMINDERS Please send a coat with your child each day to school. We do go out for recess unless it is too wet or the temperature or wind chill is below 32 degrees. Students who do not dress in layers and wear a coat are not prepared for the daily 20-minute recess. Always dress your child to be prepared for an outside recess.

TESTING DATES All students in kindergarten through second grade will be taking norm-referenced tests on April 6 and 7. Kindergarten students will be taking the MAT-8 test, while first and second grade students will be taking the SAT-10 test. We are mandated by the Arkansas Department of Education to test our students in April. These tests are very important and give us valuable information regarding where your child is academically as well how as he/she compares to other students in our school, the state and the nation. Please mark your calendars now and do not schedule any appointments or make any commitments on these dates. It is extremely important that your child be in school for testing on these two days. Thank you for your support.
