Good evening families, Next week we will begin our state summative testing. While your child's teachers use different measures throughout the school year to gauge student learning, the end of year statewide testing is an important measure to determine how much your child learned throughout the school year. All students in grades K-5 will soon begin taking the ATLAS tests. It is important that your child be present on testing days, be well-rested and have a good breakfast. Next week, Kindergarten students will be testing on Tuesday, April 16 and Wednesday, April 17. Please check with your child's teacher if you have any questions.
