Achievement Test Reminders!

Parents, as you are well aware, achievement tests are this week at PDS. Here some helpful suggestions to help your child do their best on testing this week.
  • Please make sure your child eats a healthy dinner the night before testing, and gets to bed at a decent hour at bedtime.
  • Studies have shown that a breakfast enriched with protein will help your child retrieve information faster. So, in short, please make sure your child eats a healthy breakfast.
  • Please send a nutritious snack with your child to school. We will have a break in between testing, and a snack with help recharge them with energy!
Thank you so much for all your support! The last day of testing will be, Thursday, March 29th. Please make sure that your child arrives at school on time by 8:00. Testing will begin shortly after.



Testing aside- we would like to congratulate our Science Fair and Book Fair winners. Mrs. Shy's class won 1st place in the Coins For Books Challenge. Thank you so much to those of you that brought in your coins and dollars to help support our library! Mrs. Norman's class came in 2nd place. Way to go 3rd grade!! We also want to congratulate our Science Fair winners that went to Oxford. A job well done goes to everyone that participated!

Next week, is Holy Week. We will have chapel everyday next week. Please join us in fellowship as we remember and celebrate the precious sacrifice that was made for us.
There will be no school Friday, April 6 and Monday, April 9th. We hope you enjoy the long weekend with your families and friends!
