Dear Parents,

 

Beginning April 4th, the TELPAS Test for all identified bilingual students will be administered.  Also, the Math TAKS testing is around the corner for 5th grade students.  The TAKS LAT Math Test is scheduled for April 7th.  The TAKS Math Test for 5th graders will be administered on April 8th.  There have been many students that have been recommended to attend the Super Saturday classes and many have taken advantage of this extra help.  Some students have not taken advantage of this additional help.  There are more Super Saturday classes scheduled and I hope that you help us in getting your children to attend these classes if they have been recommended.  The following are the remaining dates for Super Saturday classes:

 

           April 12, 2008

           April 19, 2008

           April 26, 2008

 

These classes begin at 9:00 and end at 12:00 p.m.  A nice snack is given to students at 10:30 a.m. in the cafeteria.  I urge you to send your sons and daughters for this additional opportunity to get extra help in the areas of reading and math.

 

On another note, our school will be celebrating "The Week of the Young Child" beginning April 14, 2008.  Various activities are scheduled throughout the week. Activities include:

             Monday, April 14th - Bubble Parade inside the school premises

             Wednesday, April 16th - Hawaiian Splash Party

More information will be sent to parents on the specifics of each day's activities.
