MICHAEL'S MEMO  Good morning, I would like to say thank you to all of our staff for all of the hard work put forth in each grade level to prepare our students for the assessment season. Everyone places a hand and has a level of influence on the outcomes of all of our students. We continue our journey with FSA starting today for 4th, 5th and 6th grade students. Please stop by the 5th grade hallway and breakfast to encourage our students for their FSA testing. It's important that we stay positive and build up our students and serve as their cheerleaders.
