SOL testing continues this week, and we are proud of our students for giving their best effort! 🤗
Here are a few tips to help students feel ready:
✅ Get a good night’s sleep before testing days
✅ Eat a healthy breakfast each morning
✅ Arrive at school on time
✅ Take your time, read each question carefully, and do your best
Thank you to our families for helping students stay focused, prepared, and encouraged!
Good attendance starts with strong family routines! ⏰
Families play an important role in helping students get to school on time and ready to learn each day. Building consistent morning and evening routines, planning for transportation, and scheduling appointments outside the school day when possible can make a big difference.
Every day in class helps students stay connected, keep up with learning, and build habits that support long-term success! 🙌

➡️ Always watch children closely near the shoreline, in pools, and around docks, piers, and marinas.
➡️ Swim near a lifeguard whenever possible. Follow posted beach flag warnings and pool rules.
➡️ Make sure children wear properly fitted life jackets when boating, paddleboarding, or playing near open water.
A few safe habits can make a big difference all summer long! 😎
