📢 Hello Sabal Palm Families,

Please take a moment to review the upcoming F.A.S.T. testing dates to ensure your child is present on their scheduled testing days. It is very important that students are in attendance so they can test in the best possible environment and perform to their fullest potential. 📚✨

Your child’s results also help teachers plan targeted instruction based on their individual needs. 🎯

We ask for your support in making sure your child arrives at school by 8:30 a.m. on testing days, well-rested and ready to do their best! ⏰💪

Thank you for partnering with us to support student success at Sabal Palm Elementary! 🙂🦩
