The Stallion Stampede
Janie Stark Elementary Parent Newsletter
May 8, 2022
Dear Stallion Families,
Thank you for helping make Teacher Appreciation Week last week so special for our staff! With all of the donated gift cards, each staff member was able to get 1-2 gift cards throughout the week! Receiving these gift cards was the highlight of the week for our staff!
We have STAAR testing this week for our 3rd-5th graders. If your child is testing this week, please be sure they get a good night's sleep, a healthy breakfast, and are on-time each day! This will help them feel relaxed and prepared to do their best each day.
To the BEST of days,
Mrs. Putman

22-23 School Supplies
Last year, we moved our school supplies online and it was so easy! Order online and the supplies will be packaged with your child's name and grade level and DELIVERED to the school for you in August! We hope this helps so that parents and guardians are not having to drive to several stores to find all items on the list.
Click here: Stark Elementary - School Supplies Co. and order today! Remember when ordering to select your child's grade level for NEXT YEAR. The deadline to order supplies and have them sent directly the school for you is June 17th.
We hope this helps you prepare for next year!
