Hip!! Hip!!! Hooray!!! We are a quadruple A !!!! Congratulations to each and every one of you!!!

We increased our total score from 537 to 600, a gain of 63 points. This is an awesome achievement and serves as testament to our unparalleled effort and dedication. The teachers provided an excellent learning environment for our students and I am so very proud of our accomplishments!!!!

This year’s mission will be to surpass our already high standards by staying focused on the needs of all of our students.

Our goals this year are to:

• Continue providing exciting and effective literacy, mathematics and science curriculums.

• Use the access points to assure higher levels of performance and achievement.
