The end of the school year can be a stressful, and sometimes, chaotic time for students. This time of year students can often become impatient, impulsive, and sometimes make poor decisions. Please help us by encouraging your child to stay focused, make good choices, and to finish the school year strong. We want all of our students to end the year on a high note, so we are asking all parents to please have dialogue with your child about the importance of staying on task and working hard this final week. We know our students will rise to the challenge.
