PM3 Testing begins this week! Our 4th and 5th graders will take the FAST writing test this Tuesday. It's crucial that all 4th and 5th graders are present and remain for the entire day to complete the test. Please ensure students arrive before 8:30 AM. Students arriving after the start time will not be able to test on Tuesday and will need to make it up on another day. We kindly request that doctor's appointments and other appointments be rescheduled, if possible. Please ensure students get a good night's sleep and eat breakfast. Breakfast is free for all students; please arrive by 8:00 AM to allow ample time to eat. Below are the other dates to save on your calendar for April Testing where attendance will be important:
