Online Directory
After quite a long wait, we are working to pull together an optional family directory prior to the summer for families to remain connected, set-up play dates, etc. Please fill out this form for each child you would like included in the directory with the family information you are willing to share. Once ready, this directory will be published under a password protected section of our website with the password shared only with families who choose to participate.

Spring MAP Information
Spring MAP Dates: April 21st - May 10th

To prepare for testing day:
  1. Make sure that your child is well rested on school days and especially the day of a test. Children who are tired are less able to pay attention in class or handle the demands of a test.
  2. Give your child a well-rounded diet. A healthy body leads to a healthy, active mind.
  3. Remind your child that they need to bring a good book to read in the testing room once they've completed their MAP test. 
  4. Avoid any unnecessary absences from school during the MAP testing period.
