Paraprofessionals Appreciation Day
📣 Important STAAR Testing Dates Reminder

Dear Parents & Guardians,

STAAR testing is quickly approaching, and it is vital that all students are present on their assigned testing days.

We understand that emergencies can happen; however, if at all possible, please avoid picking up your child early on testing days. Individuals entering and exiting classrooms to call out students can be a significant distraction for those who are still testing.

To help your child perform their best, please ensure they:
✔️ Get a good night’s rest
✔️ Arrive to school on time
✔️ Come prepared and ready to do their best

We appreciate your support in helping create a focused and successful testing environment for all students!
