Greetings Bulls, 

Congratulations to our students and teachers on completing the majority of our ACAP testing over the past two weeks. This week we will continue to finish up the last few students that need to test. I am proud of the hard work everyone has put into our academic pursuits this year. We still have a quarter to the year left and will remain focused on contining to pursue standard mastery and skill building. Thank you for reminding your children that the state test is one small part of our school year, and we still have much to learn together! 

Go Bulls!
