Our 5th grade teachers, Ms. Peña and Ms. Montenegro, at Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary brought learning to life with a fun and engaging hydration activity to get students pumped up for the STAAR! 🥤✨

Students created their own custom drinks by choosing flavors and adding candy, all while reviewing key concepts about mixtures and solutions. It was a sweet way to reconnect with what they’ve learned and stay energized for testing. Way to mix learning with fun—good luck on STAAR, 5th grade! 🎉

Dear HBG Families,

STAAR testing is just two days away, and I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support. Our teachers, staff, and students have been working very hard all year—reviewing key skills, practicing strategies, and building confidence to ensure our students are ready to do their best.

You can help your child be successful by making sure they:
-Get a good night’s sleep before each testing day
-Eat a healthy breakfast
-Arrive at school on time

Most importantly, please encourage your child and remind them that we believe in them. A positive attitude and your support make a big difference.

Thank you for partnering with us for your child’s success. We are proud of our students and all of the hard work they have put in, and we are excited to see them shine on STAAR.

Together, we are González.

Sincerely,
Ms. Perez
Principal

Estimadas familias de HBG:

El examen STAAR está a solo dos días, y quiero tomar un momento para agradecerles por su apoyo continuo. Nuestros maestros, personal y estudiantes han estado trabajando muy duro durante todo el año: revisando habilidades clave, practicando estrategias y fortaleciendo la confianza para asegurar que nuestros estudiantes estén listos para dar su máximo esfuerzo.

Usted puede ayudar a que su hijo(a) tenga éxito asegurándose de que:
-Duerma bien la noche antes de cada día de examen
-Desayune de manera saludable
-Llegue a la escuela a tiempo

Lo más importante es que anime a su hijo(a) y le recuerde que creemos en él/ella. Una actitud positiva y su apoyo hacen una gran diferencia.

Gracias por colaborar con nosotros para apoyar el éxito de su hijo(a). Estamos muy orgullosos de nuestros estudiantes y de todo el esfuerzo que han puesto, y estamos emocionados de verlos brillar en STAAR.

Juntos, somos González.

Atentamente,
Mrs. Pérez
Directora
