Parents of 4th, 5th & 6th grade students,

Our new PARCC assessments will be on Feb 24th – 26th .
The assessment I have seen will challenge our students. Lets do our best to prepare our students and support each other.  As we enter the final 4 weeks of preparation, here are a few suggestions:
• Be at school every day and on time!
• Review questions using the Common Core workbooks, the Study Island program
and information distributed by their teacher.
• Get 9-10 hours of sleep and eat healthy.
• Complete all assignments given by your teacher.
• If you were selected for the afterschool tutoring program, try to attend on a regular  basis.

Sincerely,

Mr. Lewis
