From Your RVA Principal
It’s a great day at RVA!!!
As a reminder, testing season is underway! If your RVA Owl scholar is scheduled to take an SOL test at Henderson Middle School, please remember to bring your scholar to Door 6 on your designated testing day. Door 6 is located near the bus loop on the right side of the school. Do not report to the main office. Our team will be available at Door 6 to check your scholar in. Check in begins at 9am and closes at 9:30am. Pick up is also at Door 6 and is between 12noon and 12:30pm. Parents will be contacted directly if your child finishes the test early or needs additional time. If you have any questions or concerns, please refer to the previously sent Testing Letters, reach out to your child's teacher, or connect with our site testing coordinators, Mrs. Tiffany Lindfors (tlindfors@rvaschools.net) and Mrs. Melinda Brooks (mbrooks4@rvaschools.net).
