Learning Today. Leading Tomorrow. Always a Timberwolf!

Hello Timberwolf Families,

Our state testing week is off to a strong start—our students are showing focus, perseverance, and pride in their work. A huge thank you to the families who have already donated snacks. These donations have made a real difference, giving students a natural break during testing and a chance to recharge. We will continue accepting snack donations through Friday—granola bars, crackers, popcorn, trail mix, and similar items are greatly appreciated!

I’ve also received a few questions about 8th grade end-of-year events. Our 8th Grade Celebration will take place on June 10th. This will be a special evening of dinner and dancing for 8th graders only, and we’re excited to celebrate and honor them. We also have a commemorative t-shirt available for purchase. Shirts are $15 and include all students’ names on the back. Orders are due by May 15th.

As we head into the final stretch of the school year, please continue encouraging your students to stay engaged and finish strong. Attendance remains critical, and meaningful learning will continue all the way through the last day.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support!

GO TIMBERWOLVES!
