Principal's Message...

Dear Students and Families, As we approach the upcoming STAAR exams next month, I want to take a moment to emphasize the importance of being present at school each and every day. These assessments play a crucial role in measuring student progress, identifying areas of growth, and ensuring academic success. Daily attendance is key to being fully prepared for the STAAR exams. Our teachers have been working hard to provide the instruction, review sessions, and support needed to help every student excel. When students miss school, they miss out on valuable learning experiences, discussions, and practice that directly impact their confidence and performance on test day. Here’s how you can help: ✅ **Prioritize Attendance** – Every day counts! Make sure your child is present and on time. ✅ **Stay Engaged** – Encourage your child to participate in class, complete assignments, and ask questions. ✅ **Build Healthy Routines** – Ensure your child gets enough sleep, eats a nutritious breakfast, and comes to school ready to learn. Together, we can set our students up for success. Let’s make these last few weeks count by committing to excellent attendance and hard work. Thank you for your partnership in your child’s education—we believe in our students, and we know they are capable of achieving great things! Lori Moreno Principal Cigarroa Middle School
