Raider Families!

We’re proud to share that our first round of STAAR testing was a huge success—and it’s all thanks to YOU! With your support, our attendance soared to over 98%, and only a small number of students needed to complete make-up testing. We truly appreciate you getting your children here on time and ready to succeed. Raider pride is shining bright!


Looking ahead, our 8th grade students will take the Science STAAR on Tuesday, April 15th. Please remind your student to bring a fully charged Chromebook and their charger on testing day. We want every Raider ready to go!


And don’t forget—if campus-wide attendance is at 98% or higher on STAAR testing days, the entire school earns a 45-minute lunch! Let’s keep that momentum going—be here, on time, and ready to tackle the STAAR!


A friendly reminder to all families: Student pick-up is no later than 4:15 PM daily. After this time, faculty supervision at the front of the school ends, and we want to ensure every Raider remains safe and accounted for. Students who remain on campus unsupervised after hours may find themselves in situations that are not ideal or appropriate. Your cooperation helps us maintain a safe and positive environment for all.


Eighth Grade Families—we’re down to only 58 tickets left for the 8th Grade Formal! Don’t wait until the last minute. Get your ticket before they’re gone!


As always, thank you for your continued support and partnership. Together, we’re building a strong, successful Raider community!
