STAAR Testing Dates – Important Reminder 📚

STAAR testing for all grade levels is coming up! Please help your student be fully prepared by keeping the following in mind:

-Encourage your child to get a good night’s sleep before each testing day
-Provide a healthy breakfast to help them stay focused and energized
-Make sure they bring their laptop and charger to school

We kindly ask that you avoid scheduling appointments on testing days, as this may cause interruptions and impact your child’s performance.

Thank you for your support in helping our students do their very best!
