Tuesday is Bus Driver Appreciation Day.  Thank you to all of our drivers and aides.  We literally could not have school without you.  Our bus drivers are the first school employee our students see each morning and the last one they see after school setting the tone for the day.  Thank you for getting us where we need to go safely and efficiently.  You are appreciated! 

All students will be taking the math WYTOPP test on Tuesday.   We appreciate the hard work and effort our students are putting into WYTOPP and we thank our families for getting their students to school on time, ready to test.  The vast majority of students will be done with WYTOPP for the year on Tuesday.  Students who were absent on one of the testing days, will be pulled to make up the tests they missed over the next week or so.  We are excited to see our students’ and teachers’ hard work reflected in our WYTOPP scores.

You can still register for the The 41st Annual Hapi-ness 5K on Saturday, May 9th at 8:00 am.  The Hapi-ness was started to honor Hapi Patterson, a Laramie Junior High student who was fighting cancer. Each year the proceeds from the Hapi-ness are used to support families in need. This year’s race will support Brody Bowlds, an 8th grade student who is battling acute myeloid leukemia.  Please watch this video to learn more about this year’s race and use this link to sign up.  You can run, jog, or walk the 5K, just be there.  We are hoping to set a new fundraising record in support of Brody and others in need in our community and we need your support to make that happen. 

You can also support the Hapi-ness 5K by participating in Do Good with Chipotle on Wednesday May, 6th from 4-8 pm.  Order online for pick up using code YFJB7PT or show this flyer in the restaurant.  Twenty five percent of sales will be donated to the cause.  You can follow up Wednesdays' dinner with Crunch for a Cause on Friday, May 8th.  Go to Taco John’s from 5-9 pm to participate.  A portion of the sales will be donated to the Hapi-ness 5K.  We appreciate your continued support of this event as we look to set an all time fundraising record.

We are in the home stretch of this school season.  Let’s continue to work together, communicate, and give our best effort as we finish strong.  Make it a great week!
