Thanks to LUES PTO and SnoBiz for helping us celebrate our amazing students last week who earned perfect scores on their State MAAP tests! 🎉 We are so proud of their hard work and dedication. The celebration continued last Friday as we recognized more students who showed growth or scored Level 4 or 5 at the end of last school year. Let’s keep up the momentum as students take their First 9 weeks' Benchmarks this week! #AnchoredToExcellence
