DearStella May Swartz Parents/Guardians:
Traditionally we do not have Valentine’s Day parties at Swartz but do allow the children to exchange valentines. You may send your student with valentines for the class, which will be passed out during class time. Please do not send any treats or valentines with candy attached to them. Thanks for your cooperation.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Our students at Stella May Swartz have been working hard on filling their Kindness trees. Keep up the good work!

TESTING, TESTING
MAP testing begins January 14th – 28th. MAPs are a great way to evaluate your student’s current level in math and reading. Tests are taken on the computer and become more difficult as your child answers correctly or remains at the current level if the answer is incorrect. As with all testing we ask that your child be on time, get a good night’s rest and eat a healthy breakfast.
