The Cherry Street Connection

M-STEP and NWEA Have Arrived! Greetings, Parents! It’s that time of year again! The testing season has arrived. Students will begin taking the annual spring assessments next week. We have talked to the students about these, and want to make them as comfortable as possible. We have scheduled the tests as best as possible to avoid test fatigue. In order to help with this, we ask for your help. In talking with the staff, these are areas that we think may help our students: Rest -- Students need as much as possible (don’t we all). Consistent bedtimes that offer plenty of sleep help prepare students for testing. Breakfast -- A good breakfast is a great way to start the day. Cherry Street does provide free breakfast for the kids, so we can help with this one. If your child happens to arrive after breakfast is done being served, have him/her stop into the office; we will make sure food is provided. Encouragement - These tests are important to us as they show us a snapshot

4th Grade Pizza Kits Arrive Tomorrow! Attention Parents: The Zapsnack pizza kits from the fourth grade fundraiser will be delivered to Cherry Street TOMORROW, Tuesday, April 4th. If your child had a large order, you may want to make arrangements to pick them up from the school. They will be delivered to the school around 2:00. If you have any questions, feel free to call the office. Thank you.
