We are thrilled to share that testing is officially over, and we are incredibly proud of our students! Our attendance was over 98% for each testing session — a huge thank you to you, our families, for ensuring your child was present and on time each day. Your support made all the difference.
There are now 23 school days remaining in the school year, and it's more important than ever that students continue to come to school each day and arrive on time. The learning in May will focus on important content that will give students a strong head start for next year, so every day matters.
We’re excited for upcoming events like our Western Playland field trip and the 8th Grade Formal. Please remind your child that students who receive an office referral will not be allowed to attend these special events. This expectation helps maintain positive behavior across campus as we wrap up the school year.
For our current 7th graders, who will be incoming 8th graders next year, there are several Career & Technical Education (CTE) summer camps available. These camps are a great way to explore future career paths and stay engaged during summer break. Seating is limited, so please take advantage of this opportunity by registering early using the following link: https://www.yisd.net/o/yisd/page/cte-summer-camps.
We will also continue our weekly attendance challenge. The grade level with the highest attendance each week will earn free dress the following week. In addition, we are launching a new challenge: any student who completes their registration for next school year will also earn free dress the following week. Just a reminder — students must still dress out for PE on free dress days, so please make sure they bring their PE uniform.
Lastly, our Raider Learning Lounge for after-school intervention has officially ended for the year. Thank you for supporting your child’s participation throughout the program.
We appreciate your continued support and partnership. Let’s finish the year strong together!
