Families, Tomorrow is our MSTEP state mandated testing. We have to start at 8 AM sharp so make sure your child gets a good night sleep and is here on time. Just a reminder the scores from these assessments help dictate what their schedule will look like next year. I'm only asking students to give their best effort and take their time. We offer all students and end the year field trip. To be eligible for that field trip, Students were told that they need to be here on time and give maximum effort. Also, those parents did not make it to conferences last week. Report cards will be mailed out and should be to all of your homes sometime next week. Thanks, Mr. Filiccia & Ms Hoekstra
