These lists were sent home at the end of the school year.

We are excited to recognize our students in 3rd through 8th grade who met or exceeded their learning goals in literacy and math.

The awards are based on the results of their Northwest Evaluation Association Measure of Academic Progress (NWEA MAP) assesment, an adaptive test that allows teachers to identify student's specific learning needs and opportunities for growth as well as their i-Ready diagnostic, an adaptive, web-based assessment used to assess students' strengths and areas for improvement in math.

The month of May is Prader-Willi Syndrome Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness and showing support for individuals and families impacted by this rare genetic condition.

We are proud to support one of our own students who is living with Prader-Willi Syndrome. As part of our community’s recognition, we invite everyone to join us in wearing an orange top this Friday, May 30th, which is traditionally observed as Prader-Willi Syndrome Awareness Day.

The color orange is the official color for Prader-Willi Syndrome awareness and symbolizes hope, strength, and unity. By wearing orange, we show our support and help raise awareness for this important cause. There is no charge for this; students must wear uniform bottoms.

Thank you for standing with us and supporting our amazing student and all those affected by Prader-Willi Syndrome.
