⭐️SC Ready Testing Surprise - Grades 3-5⭐️
SC Ready testing is quickly approaching! We want to provide extra encouragement for our students because we know this can be a stressful time. We sent home notecards with students on Tuesday and a letter encouraging families to write a note of encouragement for their child. If you did not send your notecard back this week, please send those in by Monday, April 28th. We want to ensure all students have a special note the first morning of testing. Remember this will be a surprise for students so please seal the envelope and have students turn it into the Inquiry office. We will deliver notes to classrooms on the first day of testing.

🍩DONUTS FOR GROWNUPS🍩
As the year winds down, we want to pause and recognize the special adults in our students' lives. We understand it takes a village to support them and we simply want to say "THANK YOU"! Students are invited to bring parents, grandparents, or special adults to this event (up to 3 family members per family). Use the QR code below or paper form (that will go home this week) to RSVP.
NOTE: We strongly encourage students and adults to arrive together.

Superintendent Dr. Sutton made storytime extra special for National School Library Week by visiting every elementary school in the district to read to students! By sharing stories and sparking imagination, he hopes to inspire children to have a lifelong love of reading.
