SOL Testing & End of the Year Test
Grades 3-5 are currently involved in Online Standards of Learning Tests. These tests occur every year for grades 3-12 in Virginia at the end of the year. Please make sure your child gets plenty of sleep during this time and eats a healthy breakfast. All grade levels K-5 will be tested with end of the year assessments to check their yearly progress. All students are expected to attend school on a testing day. Please check with your child's teacher about the schedule and inform them of any anticipated absences.

Got YOGA MATS?
Ms. Ta is looking for donations of old Yoga Mats to use in her room. She has redesigned her room to fit in with our Classroom Managment, Responsive Classroom. Her room allows students to choose their seating for each lesson and offers a variety of options within her room. She would love Yoga Mats or Large Pillows (new dog pillows) to use in in this alternative classroom set up. Please bring donations to the front office with Ms. Ta's name on them.
