This is a reminder of tomorrow's parent meetings, and we truly hope you will make plans to attend. These meetings are especially important as we approach the final stretch of the school year and prepare students for key academic milestones.
Each grade level will cover information that directly impacts your child’s success:
Kindergarten: Fourth Quarter Promotion
First Grade: Increased academic rigor and higher reading expectations
Second Grade: ACAP testing – this will be your child’s first experience with this assessment
Third Grade: ACAP testing and the Literacy Act – understand how your child’s performance may determine promotion to fourth grade
Fourth and Fifth Grade: ACAP testing and academic progress
To make sure you receive the information you need, especially if you have children in multiple grade levels, we will organize the meetings as follows:
Kindergarten and First Grade
Second and Third Grade
Fourth and Fifth Grade
Each group will be offered two identical sessions, allowing you to choose the time that works best for your family: 4:30–5:00 p.m. or 5:00–5:30 p.m.
We look forward to partnering with you and seeing you there!




























I hope everyone is keeping warm today. Due to the expected cold temperatures, we are postponing our Parent Meetings scheduled for tonight. We will let you know the new date as soon as possible.
Thank you!

Our amazing Student Ambassadors and Safety Patrol members just completed their first service project of the year and what a success it was! The students at Florence Howard raised $615 for Breast Cancer Awareness.
Today, we had the honor of presenting the check to Caroline Smith from USA Health, who shared how much this donation means in helping support those fighting breast cancer right here in our community.
I couldn't be prouder of our students for leading with kindness, teamwork, and purpose.
