Trailblazer Times 6/18/23
Happy Sunday, Trailblazers- and Happy Father's Day to all of our Trailblazing dads! Please note that there is NO SCHOOL for students tomorrow (June 19) in observance of the Juneteenth holiday!
EOG testing this week for students in grades 3-4-5 Our Trailblazers have worked hard all year and it is time for them to show what they know! Please note that we will have a modified lunch, specials, and recess schedule for ALL students to accommodate the state testing on June 20th (ELA), 21st (MATH), and 22nd (SCIENCE). All students who are testing will receive a free breakfast. You can help your child to do their best by:
-making sure they head to bed early (without any electronics) to get a good night's sleep -making sure they up early enough to get to school on time (late students will not be allowed into the testing environment and will have to take the test during the make-up days) -remaining positive- tell your child to take their time and do their very best- they've got this!!!!
Remediation and retesting on June 29th and June 30th If your child is receiving a passing grade in a tested subject area but does not pass the EOG, they will be invited to participate in our EOG Remediation and Readministration program. You will receive an invitation/phone call for your child to attend the retesting days on June 29th and June 30th. Transportation will be provided, and breakfast and lunch will be available.
23-24 school supply lists Lists are posted on the Banks Road website and can also be accessed HERE
23-24 class assignments and Kindergarten information Your Trailblazer will receive a postcard in the mail during the week of July 10th. The postcard will include the teacher assignment for students in grades 1-5 and the staggered entry date for rising Kindergarteners. Kindergarten parents will learn more about the staggered entry process during Kindergarten orientation on July 19th.
