Cougar Valley Weekly Family Update

Stronger Together: Every Student, Every Day, Every Possibility

March 20, 2026

Happy Friday Cougar Valley Cats and Families,

What a wonderful way to wrap things up here in the Valley! The Apex Fundraiser team has been fantastic, bringing so many leadership lessons, enthusiasm, and positivity to our school. The fundraiser continues through midnight tonight!

We ended the week with parent-teacher conferences—what a great way to connect and share your child’s successes and goals for the remainder of the year.

We’re ready to cruise through these final months and stay laser-focused on ending the year strong. Thank you for your continued partnership and support!

Thank you for all that you do!

Go Cats! 🐾

In Service,
Monday Galbreath

SBA Testing Coming in May

Dear 3rd–5th Grade Families,
Our Smarter Balanced Assessments (SBA) will begin in May for students in grades 3–5. These assessments are an opportunity for students to show what they have learned this year and demonstrate their growth.
To help your Cat feel confident and ready to do their best, please remember to:
  • Ensure they get plenty of rest the night before testing
  • Provide a healthy breakfast each morning
  • Encourage them to come to school ready to try their best
We also ask that families try to avoid scheduling appointments & vacations during testing days whenever possible so students can complete their assessments with their class.

  • Math: May 4–5
  • Science: May 6
  • ELA: May 11–13
