Students at Pinedale Elementary School were bursting with energy and enthusiasm as they prepared for the annual FCAT testing.  Ms. Alicia Hinson,  principal at Pinedale said that the students have been working very hard to get ready for the testing process and needed to have a little before their first test day.

The Pre FCAT Fun Day was about allowing the students an opportunity to de-stress and relax before testing.  Third, fourth and fifth graders were excited and anxious to play.  Students from the Jacksonville Job Corps Center assisted with Cup Stacking, Balloon Blow, Triangle Football, Sling Shot, Cotton Nose, Feather Breath and Bucket Head games.    Everyone had a sensational time.  The elementary school students said they were ready to take their testing and maintain the “A” status they now have.
