The current school year is quickly winding down. There are many events planned and unfortunately, some of these events need to be rescheduled due to weather or other issues that interrupt our planned schedule. Please check the pop-up for the most current information.
Congratulations to the Third Grade students and their teachers. They posted a 97% proficient/advanced score on their TCAP Reading test this year!
Congratulations to our principal, Randy Bohlander, on his appointment as Superintendent of the Cotopaxi School District! We appreciate his time and commitment to Lion Pride over the past six years. We wish him well in his new position. (We will be conducting principal interviews and selection during the month of May.)
Thank you for your support of Swink students this year; in the classroom and during their activities. Have a safe, restful summer vacation. It’s a great day to be a Lion!
Planning for Next Year
- The school calendar for the 2013-2014 school year has been approved with specific start and dismissal times to be determined. It is available in the school office and will be posted on the website in June with exact start and dismissal times of the school day.
- The first day of school is August 22, 2013. Registration is August 19.
- NEW NEXT YEAR: Every Wednesday will be early release at approximately 2:00 P.M. so that staff can take part in on-going professional development. The new teacher evaluation tool requires staff to take part in Professional Learning Communities that meet consistently. Early release time on Wednesdays will allow this to happen.
- Class supply lists will be posted on the website right after July 4th. We will try to make these lists as accurate as possible.
