The past week we have spent some time celebrating students' hard work. Students in grades K-2 got to "pie" the principal if they scored proficient or distinguished on the Winter MAP test to pump them up for Spring MAP testing. Students in grades 3-5 got to "pie" their principal for scoring proficient or distinguished on the Spring MAP test. Students in grades 3-5 also participated in the Cavalier Games, where 5th grade took home the W winning 3/4 of the games. Burdine is ready to take on all end of year testing!

Preschool students are studying life cycles in action! They are so excited to see them hatch.
