It is time to make a plan for PRIME READING. If your child is in 7th grade they will need to earn 50 points and if your child is in 8th grade they will need to earn 60 points by the end of the school year.

Due to our enrichment class schedule, students do not have PRIME READING on Wednesday or Thursday. Please make sure that you child is reading, at least 30 minutes, on non-prime days for his/her success. This counts towards 10% of their Language Arts Grade.

Happy New Year….each year brings a new beginning. It is an unwrapped gift waiting to be opened. What will 2016 bring……..the possibilities are endless. May you find growth, diligence , and achieve many accomplishments  in 2016.
