Parents & Guardians

We are so proud of the progress that our students have made this school year. We know that a large part of their success comes from your support and guidance. With that said, it is that time of the year when our students get an opportunity to show everyone else what they’ve learned this school year and gain some valuable experience for high school end of course exams. The students will take the English Language Arts AIR assessments on April 11th and 12th, Math on April 19th and 26th, and 8th graders will take Science on the 27th. We will run an adjusted schedule on testing days.

In preparation for testing, we wanted to send a few reminders and recommendations:

• Students should get a good nights’ sleep the day prior to testing
• Everyone should eat a good breakfast or arrive early enough to receive one
• Make every effort to arrive at school on time
• Please arrive with your Chromebook each day
• Please arrive with your Chromebook charged each day
• Please leave all electronic devices in your locker or at home. You cannot have a cell phone or smartwatch on your body during testing.
• Bring a pair of earbuds on the math and science test days. Students will have the option of listening to questions and text read aloud. These must have a cord
• 8th grades can use the TI-30XIIs calculator for the math test
• Do your personal best!
