CHARACTER EDUCATION

 

This month we will be focusing on COOPERATION.  Help us by talking with your child about cooperation.  Discuss how to be cooperative and praise your child when he/she is cooperative 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.

 

     ITBS TESTING

 

All students in 1st and 2nd grades (kindergarten will NOT be tested) will be taking the ITBS test April 3-5.  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 as how 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 on time for testing these days.  Thank you for your support.
