**Important!!! RISE Testing Schedule!!!**

It’s time to get started with our end of year RISE testing.  I really want to make sure your children are well rested and full with a BIG, yummy breakfast on these testing dates.  Also, please make sure your children are here and are ON TIME these days!  We want them to be as successful as possible.  Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.  

Also, research shows that students are calmer and focus better when they chew peppermint gum during tests.  So, I will be giving peppermint gum to the students during each session.  If you do not want your child to have gum, please contact me and let me know.  Thanks so much for all you do!

**I will be continuing my Spring Break trip cruising Europe all week and 2 days of next week.  I want you all to know that Mrs. Price will be my sub the whole time I’m gone, and she is AMAZING!  She always subs for me when I am gone for long periods of time.  I fully trust her to teach your children while I am gone.  I have taught two of her children, so she knows exactly how I run my classroom and my expectations.  Everything will run very smoothly, but I wanted to give you all a heads up.**
