Message From Dr. Maestre

On Monday, September 8th, we will shift to a modified bell schedule to accommodate FAST PM1 testing for most of our Braves. The FAST PM1 is very important as it will provide us with baseline data so we can meet the needs of each student this academic year. Therefore, on Sunday night please make sure your student gets their rest and then on Monday morning, eats a healthy breakfast. As always, students should bring their fully-charged device and charger to school.

As we approach the mid-point of this first nine-week quarter, teachers will begin to prepare student progress reports. If any student has missing assignments or other work that needs to be completed, please take care of that right away. Once finalized, progress reports will be posted to Skyward Family Access.  

As always, thank you for reading!

Forever Brave,

Dr. Maestre
Principal
