Hello parents,

Monday we start our final week of testing with most students.

Our students have been very focused during this long testing

session and we are very proud. For those parents who have a

student that has modifications, the state has approved paper

pencil tests and those should arrive next week.

For those students we will start as soon as we get the tests.

Congratulate your students on being focused and prepared

during this challenging testing time.

Mr. Lugo, Principal
