Continuing May 7 through Friday May 10th students in all grades will be participating in the State end of year assessments. For those two weeks (Monday’s are run on a regular bell schedule) we will run a “Block” schedule to accommodate for the longer time needed to administer those assessments. There is a PDF showing that schedule attached to this story.

Thanks to our Character Ed class we have an awesome new hallway display. The "Diamondbacks in Action" board hangs in the hallway displaying pictures of students who have been nominated by their peers for the great people they are. Attached are just a few of the picutres with the peer write-up as to why they were nominated.
