News & Announcements

Regular Bell schedule for the week as our test takers end this season of testing strong!

🖤💜 This week, we have both AP Exams and SBAC Math Performance Task and CAT.

This week, we will be on a regular Monday–Friday bell schedule, and we also have a busy testing week ahead with both AP and SBAC exams taking place across grade levels.

It’s an important week to stay focused and come prepared each day. Please make sure students arrive at the gate by 9:35 AM with a charged Chromebook and take advantage of breakfast before getting started.

It is also Teacher Appreciation Week 💜 Please take a moment to show appreciation for your teachers. Check out the attached flyer for simple ideas on how to recognize the impact they make each day.
