Transition Updates

Our 5th graders are getting all ready for middle school!  Registration forms went home this week and the updated immunization forms are coming in.  Palmer MS visited with their rising students in March and Awtrey will be here May 6th.  Please remember that Awtrey Parent Night is May 11th and Palmer's Parent Night is May 5th.  Keep those immunization forms coming in!

Our 3rd grade teachers are looking forward to welcoming our upcoming 3rd graders for next school year.  Second grade parents night will be Thursday, May 7th, in Big Shanty's cafeteria from 6:00 until 6:45.  Please join us for a tour of the school as well as a question and answer session with our powerpoint.  We look forward to meeting our new students and parents.

April Update

 Happy Spring!  Along with all of the pollen and allergies, the CRCT has arrived!  It has come upon us quickly this year.  As usual, please keep in mind the following when helping your child prepare for the CRCT:

1)  Students need to get plenty of sleep during testing week.
2)  Please make sure students have a healthy breakfast.
3)  Students need to be here every day and on time (testing will begin promptly at 8:15!)
4)  Help your child to cope with any test anxiety that may be appearing.  Students need to think positive thoughts and have take deep breaths!
