We are so proud of our students for officially completing the Ohio State Tests. Students worked so hard all year and I’m sure were very successful on the assessments. We are glad they are over!
Best of luck to our athletic teams as they continue to compete this spring. It has been great to see our Jaguars in action!
Lastly, we would like to invite our 8th grade students to the Spring Social on May 17 from 6-8pm. The theme is Hawaiian Luau! More details will be coming out soon.
As we head into warmer days, I want to emphasize the importance of good attendance for your child. Each day at school is like a building block for their learning journey, and every missed day can make a difference. Not only does regular attendance help them academically, but it also shapes their ability to work well with others and communicate effectively. These skills are important for their future success, whether it’s in the classroom or beyond.
In fact, our community determined that being a Purposeful Communicator is a key skill for future success, and that is why it is part of our Portrait of a Learner. Click here to hear from Kelli Barnes, a Hilliard parent and pharmacist, about how good communication is integral to all relationships, inside and outside of the workplace. Thank you for continuing to partner with us this year on instilling good attendance habits in your student.
