Good afternoon, Eagles! This is a friendly reminder that all 3rd–8th grade students will take the ATLAS test this week. Testing begins first thing each morning, so please ensure students arrive on time and well-rested each day. Tuesday – Reading Wednesday – Math Thursday- Science

Updates to weekly calendar: -Candy Grams will be available for purchase until Tuesday. $1 per candy gram - Causal for Cause this Friday.- For $1 students can enjoy a free dress day this Friday.Students must follow LRSD dress code. Also- Although our auction has ended for this year, you can still donate to our playground/middle school seating drive! Our elementary kids have long needed more space to play and our middle schoolers have long needed a place to hang out and decompress during lunch. These spaces are not only very much wanted - our kids need them so they can be ready after their breaks to tackle the rest of their days and be more successful in school! Please help if you can! https://app.galabid.com/fhsaptsa/register

Only students in 5th grade and above are permitted to sign themselves and their siblings in during the mornings.
