This year’s theme at the elementary for STAAR is “Launch for the STAAR,” and grades pre-kindergarten- fifth grade got to dress up for a week. On Monday, they got to wear “Space Jammies”-school-appropriate pajamas. On Tuesday, they got to wear matching clothes with a friend, as if they were just cloned.
On Wednesday, they got to dress up as either a cowboy or an alien. On Thursday, they got to dress up as any decade that they love.
Lastly, on Friday, they got to wear either black and gold or the STAAR shirt to “Launch for the STAAR.” They also received some goodies like bookmarks, erasers, pencils, candy, and stationery that the students might need.
It was a great and fun week that also included a parent night where parents with pre-k through 2nd-grade students got to make a spacecraft with their child, and parents of 3rd-5th-grade students got to try their hand at answering some STAAR-type questions. Everyone received popcorn when they left!!!
WE ARE READY TO LAUNCH FOR THE STAAR!!!
