A note from Mrs. Cureton:

We had a great time celebrating our leaders and achievers at our 3rd 9 weeks Leader Assembly today! Be sure to check out our Facebook page for pictures of this event! 

Several events happening in Cougar Nation as we approach the last 8 weeks of the school year! Please be sure to check dates below so that you can plan to join us for the fun! 

5th Grade Science TTAP Assessment:  The campus will be closed to visitors on the day of the science TTAP-Tuesday, April 4th--due to this assessment being a state assessment. Good luck to our 5th graders taking this assessment!

Data & Donuts: Please join us this Thursday, April 6th, for Data & Donuts! Students will be sharing their current data with families, families will participate in a fun class activity, & all will enjoy donuts! Pre-K--2nd grade will host this event from 11:00-11:30 in grade level classrooms. 3rd--5th grade will host this event from 11:30-12:00 in grade level classrooms. This day is also an early release day--all students will be released at 12:30pm. 

Early Release: We will have an early release, at 12:30pm, on Thursday, April 6th. There will be no Boys and Girls Club after school care on this date. Please make sure you have plans arranged for student pick up at 12:30pm on Thursday as teachers will be in campus professional learning in the afternoon. 



Have a great weekend! 

-Sarah Cureton, Principal
