Hoy es el Día Nacional de las Enfermeras. Gracias por todo su afecto y bondad! ❤️

MAP, or the Measure of Academic Progress, is a computerized adaptive test that helps teachers, parents, and administrators improve learning for all students and make informed decisions to promote a child's academic growth.

These tests are important assessments and we hope you help us encourage your children to do their best by ensuring they get plenty of rest and they try very hard even when it seems tiresome. We count on you to share this message with your children!

Family-school partnerships are essential to unleashing your child's full potential! Thank you for your continued support!
