This week I want to start off by thanking all our Jets from the teachers, cafeteria staff, UCF interns and everyone on campus who made it possible for a successful FSA test day on Thursday. I also want to thank our students for being prepared for the test and being flexible. As everyone knows, Thursday we were impacted by weather. Student safety is extremely important so due to the 30/30s that occurred, students were held in test sites and lunch was delivered to them.
This past week was National School Library week as well as National Assistant Principal week. Thank you to Mrs. DiMura, Mrs. Fuller and Ms. Scurry for all you do for Legacy.
As we enter into this new week, a busy week is ahead. We have a SAC/PTSA meeting, our first track meet of the season, Moana performances, and we will also begin iReady end of the year testing. Let’s have a great week Jets!
Mr. Jiménez
