Good afternoon, parents! Just a reminder that tomorrow morning we will take the 2nd window of ELA Innovative Assessment. This assessment replaces the LEAP Test for ELA in 6th Grade and is taken three times during the school year. Please make sure your student arrives on time to school tomorrow. Also, don't forget to charge Chromebooks tonight. Students will need their Chromebooks to take the assessment. You've got this RAMS!

Don't forget the Holiday Reading challenge is in full swing! The last day before a holiday break can be a bit overwhelming for some, so tomorrow would be a great day to take a minute to find a quiet space and READ! Plus, anyone who participates and makes 85% or better on the test gets cocoa and cookies as a reward after the break!!

Parents/guardians, please read the announcement regarding cold weather gear: While we do allow students to wear jackets to school, jackets may not be worn during the school day in hallways or classrooms. If students want to wear something warmer in the classroom, they must wear a regular crewneck sweatshirt (plain school colors or IAL or Ruston) with no pockets, zippers or hoods. Any caps, beanies, fleece/sweater headbands, or gloves worn to school must also be put away in lockers upon arrival. Thanks for your help with this!
