La Porte Elementary

Principal’s Portion

Leopard Community,

As we are rapidly approaching the end

of the school year, we still have many important

goals to accomplish. May is an important month

in the measurement of academic growth. Not

only do we have the STAAR test for 3rd, 4th &

5th graders, our KG—2nd graders participate in

the MAP and DRA/BAS testing.

We also have field trips, celebrations and

awards planned. Look for information being

sent home regarding summer school, test results,

kindergarten registration and end of the year

procedures.

We have had a great year at LPE and plan to

finish strong.

Thank you again for your continued support.

Respectfully, Carol Williams Principal
