We will be testing the week BEFORE spring break and the week AFTER spring break. It is extremely important that your child be at school those days. As we move into testing “season” it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that your child is here every day, with the exception of staying home if they are sick. PLEASE let your child’s teacher know if your child will be absent. If you have not signed up for PAWS snacks on VolunteerSpot yet, please do so. Thank you to those parents who have already signed up!
