Whew!! We are done with our school-wide ACAP testing. However, we will continue to have make-ups this week. If your student has missed a test, please make sure they are at school. Our goal is to wrap up testing by Wednesday, but our deadline is Friday. It was very fun for me to have students approach me and say, “Dr. Fordham, I did my best!” That made my heart happy!

Wednesday is Administrative Professionals Day! We could not do what we do daily without our school secretaries, bookkeeper, and registrar. They are the backbone of our school.

Our PTO created a sign-up sheet for parents to help on May 1 at our ACAP Field Day. If you did not see the sign-up and would like to help, please email bumpuspto25@gmail.com.

Progress reports went LIVE on Friday. Please take the time to review your student's grades.

Our goal until the rest of the school year is to stay focused and keep our eyes on the finish line!

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email or call me.
