Reading and Math Ohio Achievement Assessments May 1st and May 3rd! Testing will begin promptly at 8:00 AM on both dates, and end at 10:30 AM. Parents please be sure to avoid scheduling appointments during these times. It is important that your student arrives at school on time. Please review the April Tiger Tid-Bits Newsletter for more information about testing and ways you can help your child have a successful experience.

Dress Code Reminder!
With the arrival of warm weather, students sometimes need to be reminded of what is appropriate to wear to school. A letter from Mrs. Kindl was recently sent home about this matter. If parents have any questions about our student dress code, please refer to page 19 of the Sixth Grade Student Handbook.
