STAAR testing is around the corner and these kiddos are excited!


QHS baseball and softball games for tonight have been rescheduled for Monday night at 6.

Quitman Elementary G.T. students completed their Owl Pellet unit today by dissecting owl pellets. Principal Eldred and a few other guests joined in the fun as well.

Next Wednesday, April 28th is National Superhero Day.
Quitman Elementary is planning a few things to make the day special. One of the things will be to highlight our teachers as real life superheroes who do amazing things. The other will be to encourage the kids to dress up in their favorite superhero shirt or costume.
We wanted to let our parents know ahead of time so everyone will be prepared to join in the fun.

Quitman alum Austin Dobbs shared with the 5th grade today about his experiences while serving in the United States Air Force. He is currently stationed in Germany.
