Week 30

The NY State English Language Arts exam will take place next week. We've worked very hard to best prepare for this important exam. Our students have practiced the strategies as best as they can and have shown that they can do well. 

Please keep in mind the following as we enter the home stretch:

• Help your child be well rested. Keep up your normal routines, especially bedtimes.
• Be on time for school on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. If there have been instances of lateness in the past, please plan ahead and come to school a little earlier than usual. 
• Make sure your child eats a healthy breakfast. Avoid overly sugary foods.
• Encourage your child to do their best instead of encouraging he or she to score a specific grade. The test is only a part of the promotional criteria.

Enjoy the weekend!
