    High Fives to the
    Fourth Grade for their effort
    and dedication to the Kansas
    Reading Assessments! We are
    starting out strong with our
    scores, hoping to duplicate
    with the Math and Science
    Assessments as well!
    Testing for Math will begin the
    week we return from Spring
    Break, so remember those tips
    for test taking days. Good
    night’s sleep the night before,
    healthy breakfast the morning
    of, and think positive...you can
    do it!
