Hi All,

Thank you to those of you who came out to support Mrs. Julia’s art show and Mr. G’s chorus concert last night. It was a huge success!

As you know, the week after Spring break begins our Milestones/End of Grade Testing. Below is information regarding testing tips and the test for each day.

3rd, 4th, & 5th Milestones/End-of-Grade Testing 4/10-4/17!

Rocky Mount’s Milestones/End-of-Grade (EOG) testing will be 8:00am-11:00am Tuesday, April 10th – Tuesday, April 17th. All testing students should be at Rocky Mount by 7:50am to begin testing at 8:00am. We want our students to do their very best during the test so Kindergarten-5th grade parents, volunteers, and guests will not be allowed access to Rocky Mount from 8:00am-11:00am 4/10-4/17. Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade parents will be allowed to check out their child during the testing time, but not go to the classrooms. Thank you for your understanding, cooperation, and support.
