Happy Friday NCE Families! April is a busy month for our upper elementary students as they get ready to take their STAAR test. Teachers, Admin and Students have been working really hard these last few months to tackle the STAAR! We know our students will do amazing with their upcoming assessments.

Families, please make sure your students:

• Have a working laptop. If their laptop is damaged, please let your students teacher know so that they can submit a ticket to get it fixed
• Have a working charger. All students received a charger with their laptop, but we understand these may get lost or damaged over time. We have additional charges on campus for $25 or you may purchase one at Amazon.
• Ensure your children are getting a full night’s rest. We need them to be awake and engaged at school.
• Are eating a good, healthy breakfast.

Families, please stay tunes as these next few weeks will pass by quickly. Be sure you are following up with Family Notes and ClassDojo so you don’t miss any important messages as we have a few events coming up.

 

Have a nice, safe weekend!
