Field Day and Stingray Race a Success!

Field Day and the Stingray Race were held on Friday, May 25th. All of the students had a great time and tried their best in all of the events. Thank you to Ms. Hamrick, Mr. Mularchik, PTA volunteers, parent volunteers, volunteers from BB & T bank, and the rest of the staff.

Rising Kindergarten Orientation and Classroom Visits Rescheduled

The rising kindergarten parent orientation that was originally scheduled for May 3 from 6:00-7:00 PM and the rising kindergarten classroom visits originally scheduled for May 4 from 9:15-10:30 have been rescheduled because some families are still awaiting notice about which school their child/children will attend. The rising kindergarten parent orientation will now be held on Wednesday, May 23 from 6:00-7:00 PM, and the rising kindergarten classroom visits will now be held on Thursday, May 24 from 9:30-10:45. Please try not to arrive before 9:15 to avoid the congestion of carpool and a lack of parking.

EOG Tips for Parents

  • Help your child get a good night’s sleep. Recommendations vary, but the Mayo Clinic recommends 10-11 hours for school-age children.
  • Make sure your child eats a good breakfast. The breakfast that will be provided at school on EOG days will not be substantial, so you may wish to have your child eat at home as well as at school.
  • Encourage your child to try his/her best.
  • Avoid placing unnecessary stress on your child as he/she begins the EOG’s. Allow your child to relax before bedtime before test days.
