Dear Families, 

We are in our state testing season which began in March.  Our students have been working hard all year and this is their opportunity to show what they know in regards to the standards they have been taught.  Please see the testing dates below for grades 6-8.

*In the event that testing dates need to be changed,  we will communicate that information to families.  

Just a few reminders:

• Please try to have students here and on time on testing days so they do not need to be pulled out of class instruction for make-up sessions.  

• Please avoid coming to sign students out early during testing sessions.  Once a student leaves, they are not able to restart that test session. 

• Personal electronic devices (cell phones, ipads, smart watches, etc.) are not permitted in the testing areas. 

• Headphones may be needed for grades 7 and 8.  Please allow your child to bring their plug-in headphones (Bluetooth headphones are not permitted). 

• Routine is important when calming any nerves when it comes to testing.  Keeping to normal routines both at home and at school will help students to do their best.  

• Students need plenty of sleep in order to maintain the stamina needed to do their best. 

If you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s homeroom teacher or Ms. Porter (Testing Coordinator).
