A year's worth of flower bouquets for $60. 12 months...only $5 a month!

Dear Savage Families, I would like to share some exciting news with all of you; our school district had added an additional School Resource Officer. What does this mean? Officer Ryan Bidwell from Van Buren Police Department will be visible at all of the schools in the district. He will stop in to be a positive role model and to make sure our students are not afraid or think that something is wrong when an officer visits the school; that he is there to help. He may be seen in the lunchroom, in the hallways or even in classrooms. Please feel free to introduce yourself if you see him around Savage. Also, I am including a photo of our students of the week. Have a wonderful weekend.

Happy New Year Savage Families! As we begin 2023 I wanted to send some important dates and information that you need to be aware of: 1. Students will begin iReady testing (formerly NWEA) upon returning to school, so it is important that they arrive to school on time and try to be rested and ready to go. The test window is from January 9, 2023 through January 27, 2023. This testing will help us determine the growth that students have made and what areas we still need to support and work on. 2. Monday, January 16, 2023 there will be NO SCHOOL for Martin Luther King Jr. day. 3. Just a reminder that if your child is absent for an appointment, please be sure to ask for a school note and contact the office. 4. Please help me welcome Mrs. Kelly Doty as our part time administrative assistant; she will be taking Mrs. Lenore's place and she will step into Mrs. Theresa's role since she has retired. I am looking forward to being back at school and seeing everyone so here's to a happy and healthy 2023.
