Updates for Students
Aloha Students!
It’s MAY! We are into the last month of the school year and it is going to be busy and exciting!
Teacher Appreciation Week: This week we celebrate your TEACHERS who work so hard to provide you with quality and fun learning experiences. Take a moment to say THANK YOU to your teachers for everything that they do for you. We consider ourselves lucky to have so many wonderful educators at our school, inspiring such wonderful students!
Over the next couple of weeks, you will be having iReady diagnostic (Grades K-2) and SBA testing (Grades 3-5). There are many rules for test security that your teachers will be going over with you, if they have not done so already. It is very important that you honor all of the rules in order to get the best test results for yourselves and for our school. Be sure to eat a healthy breakfast and get a good night’s sleep. Come to school on time and ready to do your absolute best. We believe in you!
CONGRATULATIONS to our JPOs for their first ever on-campus competition day last week! We’d also like to congratulate our 5th grade math team members who competed this past Saturday. Our Ho‘owaiwai students were also recognized for their video PSAs at the ‘Olelo Youth Xchange. Awesome Job to all of the students involved-it’s great to see the renewed involvement in all of these activities!
We want this last month of school to be full of positivity. You have done a great job so far this school year in following our rules and expectations. We know you have the grit and determination to succeed for the remaining few weeks of this school year! Be amazing!
Happy May and Have a Great Day!
P.S. Check out the Grade 3 Door Decorations to inspire you for testing! Good Luck!
