2nd graders will take the CogAT and IOWA assessments on the following days:
Oct. 10 -12 (CogAT)
Oct. 17-18 (IOWA)
Letters were sent home to families last week with information regarding both tests.
There is nothing your child needs to study/practice before testing. Things you can do to help your child include:
*Encourage your child to do his/her best.
*Make sure your child is on time for school.
*Make sure your child is well rested during the testing period.
*Your child should either have eaten breakfast at home or at school.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school.

From Ms. Mosher's 1st grade class:
For our "talk about it" Tuesday, students had to pick whether they would rather be super strong or super fast. Each student then gave their explanation as to why they made their choice. As you can see, we had a lot of friends who want to be fast!
Our admin team is awesome! They became human ice cream 🍨 sundaes because our school met our Boosterthon goal of raising over $25,000!
