On Derby Day, the 8th grade students participate in a picnic-style lunch. For $3, students can receive water, a bag of chips, a bag of cookies, and hot dog to eat during their lunch. Families can pay on MySchoolFees or by turning in cash to Ms. Redpath before Derby Day (May 22nd). Please contact Ms. Redpath if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you!

Students will receive a free sno-cone (additional sno-cones may be purchased) and participate in kickball, inflatables, volleyball, and other fun activities to celebrate terrific behavior! Thanks to our PTA for their continued support and sponsorship - without them we could not host these events!

Greetings Bulls,
I want to share our End of the Year iReady Growth Reports for Math and Reading with you. We have a lot to celebrate with our students! As you can see below, our median percent growth toward students' Typical Growth in Reading for the year was 175% with 68% of our students scoring at or above grade level, in math it was 129% with 60% of our students scoring at or above grade level. There is still so much room to grow but I am pleased with the commitment our students and teachers have made in this platform. I cannot wait to see what we achieve next year!
Go Bulls!
