Standardized Testing Updates: Winter MAP Testing results will be coming home
today for students in 5K-8th Grade. These reports are used to help teachers and students set specific learning goals, track achievement, and monitor academic growth. Students will take the math and reading tests again in Spring to measure their academic growth from the school year. You can learn more about MAP Testing from the
Parent Toolkit. Please contact your child's teacher with any questions you may have.
Also, please note that due to a change in requirements by the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, we will no longer administer the Iowa Test of Basic Skills.

Basketball Tournament Winners: The 8th Grade boys basketball team competed in the St. Mary Menomonee Falls Invitational this past week and won a thrilling game over our league rival Indian Community School to take the championship! We are extremely proud of the way our boys played and represented our school, coming back from an eight-point deficit in the semi-finals to win that game in overtime and keeping their composure through a very challenging back-and-forth championship game.
