| Hello Green Bear Families, A reminder that if your student misses school for a medical appointment, please provide the elementary office with a note from the doctor's office. This allows our attendance secretary, Ms. Jeanie, to use a medical excused absence so that it doesn't count against HB410/unexcused absences. Thank you. |

| Parent tips to help your child prepare for state tests (April 2-25)The Ohio State Tests for grades 3-6 began on April 2. As a parent, you can take several steps to help your child have a positive testing experience: Schedule medical appointments outside of school hours. Plan family trips and activities on non-school days. Have your child prepare for school the night before to avoid tardiness. Ensure your child charges their Chromebook each night and brings it to school each day. Encourage your child to eat a nutritious breakfast to fuel their brain. Help your child establish a sleep routine that includes at least eight hours of rest each night. Promote outdoor play after school, as increased oxygen to the brain supports thinking and memory.
Following these tips will not only help your child perform better on tests but also support their overall academic success and daily energy levels. |
