I hope everyone had a great spring break! A big thank you to our fifth graders who made cards and mailed nearly 80 pounds of goodies to a deployed Kentucky National Guard Unit in Kuwait. It is hard to believe that we have a little more than six weeks of school left. The teachers still have a lot of material to be covered, so we need your child to be focused and working hard. Plus, we have MAP testing at the end of April and first week of May. These test give us an indication of your child's progress. Please take some time to read the announcements below because there are many things going on the next few weeks.
God bless and work hard,
Dan Mardell
