State Testing 3rd and 5th Grade Next Week
3rd and 5th grade will be testing next week in their classrooms and also the computer lab so no computer lab use the week of May 17-20.

No Tech Docent Rest of the Year
The original plan was to have it for the two weeks after testing but unfortunately it will not work with the Tech Docent's schedules.  You are still more than welcome to go into the computer lab during your time but there will not be Tech Docents.
