THANK YOU!

Community Resources The holidays are quickly approaching. When we think of the holiday season, we often associate these times with joy and family celebration. Throw in some stress, overeating, and family conflict, and you have the stereotypical holiday celebration! However, the holidays can also be a painful reminder of lost loved ones and the struggles that life brings. Many people struggle with grief, financial hardship, depression, and countless other issues. Special occasions tend to put a spotlight on these struggles. Fortunately, there is help available. Richland County has a number of resources to help people through tough times. First Call of Richland County is a great place to start.

Is it Spring yet?   Are you enjoying our long weekend?  I do not know about you, but these few days have been a huge asset for me to be able to get caught up on some of the work that I needed to do.  I hope that you have also made use of these days and were able to get caught up on anything you were behind on and prepared for the weeks ahead.   Obviously, one challenge of the cold days is that it impacted the PARCC testing schedules.  On Tuesday we will begin the Geometry test. We will also make-up any students that missed a portion of the Algebra test.  A reminder for the 8th grade students, your English testing will begin this week also. There will be three sessions: February 27th, March 3rd and March 5th.  Next week the 7th graders will begin their English testing on March 2nd, March 4th and March 6th. These days are really sneaking up on us! Hopefully you are all making every possible effort to be in school for the testing each day, bu...
