State Testing has begun & we wanted to share a few important tips with our families!
✅ Get a good night’s sleep – Rested brains work better!
🥣 Eat a healthy breakfast – Fuel up with something nutritious.
⏰ Be on time – A calm morning helps set the tone for a great day.
🧘 Take deep breaths – It’s okay to feel nervous. Just do your best!
💬 Encouragement matters – A little “You’ve got this!” goes a long way.

Mrs. Sanders first graders sent some encouragement to their 3rd grade Westie Bestie's with an uplifting banner and some sweet goodies!
"Stay safe on the test and don't be an airhead"!
