Test Prep Kick-off

The Test Prep season is upon us!

As we enter this time it is important to stay positive and to support each other. To remind us of this, we spent some time signing each other's Test Prep folders with words of encouragement. As we store our test prep materials the kind words of our classmates will boost our confidence and motivate us!

It was so nice to see all of you take time to thoughtfully sign your classmates' folders.

All of the pencils we have used and abused through the year so far are filled with our wisdom.  These pencils have been collected and will be revived during our test prep season. And they've learned a thing or two as the instruments of great thinking.
