Daily, we are striving to create a sense of urgency focused on learning. The students at Aki Kurose have worked hard this year and we are confident that they will do well on the upcoming state tests. Thank you very much for everything you have done to support the education of your child and our school this year. We appreciate all your efforts in letting your student know how important their education is to their future. The #1 benefit of taking this test is for students to demonstrate their personal best and to show their continuous growth. The test results are very important for our individual students and for our entire school.
