Testing
During the month of March, students in grade 1-5 will take spring MAP testing. Your child’s teacher will let you know the exact testing dates for the reading and math portions of the test. Also, students in grades 3-5 will take the Writing portion of the PASS test March 18th and 19th. Please be sure your child gets ample sleep before testing, and encourage them to do their best on these assessments.

Make-Up Days
Students will make up three missed school days per the school system’s calendar on Friday, March 7, Monday, March 10, and Friday, June 6, based on State law that requires school districts to schedule three makeup days. Students have missed six days this school year due to inclement weather. State law also specifies that missed days beyond the three scheduled days must be made up by scheduling additional makeup days including Saturdays and/or extending school days. The school district’s plan for missed days beyond the three scheduled makeup days is on hold as the Legislature considers a bill that would provide local school boards with authority to forgive up to five school days beyond the three scheduled makeup days. Once final legislation is approved, the administration will consider the impact of and date options for additional makeup days in making a recommendation to the Board of Trustees.

Help our school win $500! 
Let There Be Mom is hosting Seek & Snap, a digital scavenger hunt in Downtown Greenville, on Sunday, March 30, from 12:00-6:00 pm. The organization is awarding the school with the highest amount of participation $500!!  Go to www.LetThereBeMom.org to learn more about the Seek & Snap and to register your team of 4. Seek & Snap is a family, friendly event!  Let There Be Mom is a local non-profit organization that helps preserve the legacies of moms and dads who have been diagnosed with a life threatening illness.
