Attention parents!

THIS WEEK IS CST SCIENCE TESTING!

*We will be testing Wednesday and Thursday morning until recess.

*Your child can click on the CST Science released test questions link to the right of the screen in order to practice for this test!  Only their science scores will be sent to you over the summer!

*There will be no homework this week due to the Smarter Balance (common core) testing in the computer lab.  The Smarter Balance testing scores will not count this year.  This year will help children get used to taking tests on computers rather than using pencils and paper.

Perfect attendance!
