Wildcat families,

 

The second semester is off to a great start! 

 

Our Wildcat of the Week is Ethan M! Ethan is a third grade student in Mrs. Layman’s class. Mrs. Layman described him as helpful, kind, and smart. He is the first to volunteer for anything and very deserving of Wildcat of the Week! 

 

We will not be in school on Monday, January 20 in observance of Martin Luther King Day. School will be in session on January 24 to make up one of our snow days. 

 

ILEARN Checkpoint 2 will be administered to all third, fourth, and fifth graders on January 22 and 23. Please ensure that your student has a good night’s rest and a healthy breakfast before testing. 

 

On Tuesday, all students are welcome to wear a spirit shirt with uniform bottoms! We will also hold our monthly PTO meeting that evening.
