It was another full and eventful week at Meyer! We began with an unexpected bad weather day on Monday. Thank you to our families for your flexibility, and we hope everyone stayed safe and warm at home. Our 5th graders enjoyed participating in the “Now That You’re Ten” presentation, an exciting milestone for our students. Benchmark testing kicked off on Wednesday, and students worked hard to show what they know. We wrapped up the week with a busy and fun-filled Friday: Coach Halligan launched our annual Kids Heart Challenge, students celebrated the 100th day of school, and we ended the day with an early dismissal at 11:45 a.m. Thank you for another great week at Meyer!

Our students at Meyer Elementary School will be taking the district benchmark test on the following dates:

The purpose of benchmark testing is to evaluate students' academic progress and identify areas that need improvement. It is important that students be in attendance and on time these days. Please arrange doctor’s appointments on a non-testing date.

To minimize disruptions and maintain the testing environment, the campus will be closed to all visitors including lunch guests on the dates above.

In order to help your child perform at his or her best, please ensure the following items occur so your student will be prepared both mentally and physically for testing:

If you have any questions, please contact the front office at 832-223-2000.
