Get to bed on time this week!

Congratulations to our high school students who
competed in this year’s statewide IACS
High School Fine Arts Tournament. Three of
our entries placed in the finals. Lance Lewis was
the state runner-up in preaching. Jesus Frias
was the runner-up in Spanish testing. And our
Readers’ Theater group placed 3rd in state.
Students who have signed up to compete in the
IACS Junior High Fine Arts Tournament will
travel to Downers Grove, IL, on April 24th-25th.
Encourage these hard working young souls!
Remember, all students in K5-11th grade will be taking
standardized achievement tests this week. While a good
night’s sleep won’t guarantee perfect scores, it will help
test-takers stay sharp. All 6th-11th graders will have classes
from 8:00am to 12:10pm on Monday and Tuesday. Just like
exam days, they will need to leave after 12:10pm. Their
regular schedule will resume on Wednesday.
