Mission- To create a high challenge, low threat, therapeutic learning community that celebrates the gifts of every child. Vision/Purpose- To prepare students to meet the academic, social, and emotional challenges encountered in everyday life and prepare them for successful transition to middle, high school and beyond. Where belonging leads to learning. March 1, 2018 State assessments begin 3/5! State assessments begin Monday, March 5th at Pepin-Pasco. (The full testing schedule was previously published in the January 25th edition of the Pepin Pasco News!) Please make sure your child is in present every day for assessments so they do not have to participate in make-up testing. Be aware, due to your child s testing accommodations, they may be testing with someone other than their regular classroom teacher. Students are not permitted to have any electronic devices, including, but not limited to, cell phones, smartphones, and smartwatches, at any time during testing OR during breaks (e.g., restroom), even if the devices are turned off or students do not use them. If your child is found with an electronic device, his or her test will be invalidated.
