STAAR Tests: We will continue STAAR State Testing this week. On Tuesday, April 30, we will test Math for the grades 3 and 4. On Wednesday, May 1, the Math test for grades 5 and 8 will be given and the EOC Algebra I test for grade 8. On Thursday, May 2, we will have the EOC Algebra I test for grade 9. Please see the schedule below to help remember dates. Be sure your student gets a good night’s sleep and a good breakfast to be prepared for the test. These tests are VERY important! Please review It is important that your child is present at school on the day of their tests. We ask that you schedule needed appointments around these dates, this includes picking your child up early on these dates. The tests do not have a time limit, so students could be testing all day. Good luck to all the students!!! Please remember - while we want students to be comfortable they must still be in dress code (no PJ bottoms and no blankets).
