Principal's message

Bear Families,

As we head into Spring Break, I want to thank you for your continued support of our students and staff. This time of year can be busy, but our students have continued to work hard in their classes, activities, and preparations for upcoming assessments and events.

I hope this upcoming week provides families an opportunity to rest, recharge, and spend time together. When we return, we will quickly move into an important stretch of the school year with continued learning, activities, and preparing for STAAR testing in April.

Please help us ensure students return from Spring Break ready to stay focused, attend school each day, and keep up with their assignments. Consistent attendance and engagement make a big difference as we approach the final months of the school year.

Thank you for being such an important part of our school community. I hope you and your family have a safe, restful, and enjoyable Spring Break.

-Mr. Lancaster
