Spread the news, it is that time again. We are getting ready for our 2025-2026 Winona Wildcats , so let's round them up. Our HS/PK Round Up is this week!
We would like to thank our families for helping our Wildcats have a great week by having them here each day on time (7:50) and picked up at the appropriate times (3:50). As we prepare for our first round of STAAR test (reading) on April 15th for 3rd-5th grades, please assist by assuring that they are here on time, in a positive mindset, and well rested.
Please make sure they are dressed for success and ready to give their best. As a reminder, pajamas are not school appropriate and are not allowed (unless it is a designated day). Again, we thank you and look forward to great things as we strive to surpass our campus goal of 75% approaches-50% meets-10% mastery, with all students showing growth.
Elementary dates for summer school are as follows- May 29th (Workday) June 2nd- June 18th only Mondays through Thursdays
If you desire to teach, please let us know and what grade you prefer to teach.
